PRESS RELEASE
From the Office of the Yobe State Chairman, African Democratic Congress (ADC), Kalli Alhaji Umar
A CALL FOR CAUTION: DISREGARD FAKE NEWS ON SOCIAL MEDIA
We urge the public to disregard false information circulating on social media regarding the structure and positions within the Allied Congress (ADC). As a legitimate political party, ADC operates with its own mandate, executives, and guidelines from ward to national levels.
Regarding the purported list of newly appointed executives, we clarify that the ADC National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting only approved the appointment of Hauwa Yusuf as Deputy National Secretary, a former National Youth Leader and grassroots member from Yobe State.
Furthermore, we warn the public about individuals selling ADC membership cards across the state. Anyone found guilty of this fraudulent activity will face legal action, and any membership cards sold by such individuals will be considered fake.
The ADC has official channels for communication and membership registration. We advise the public to be cautious and only recognize authentic party communications.
In view of the above, the party is calling on anyone who wants to join ADC should follow the channels from grassroots (Ward level) and if one is from another party should follow the rightful channel by putting on a resignation letter to the ward chair of the old party and subsequently pick up the ADC membership card from the ward chairman of the party.
Furthermore, the party have not started issuing membership card since the COALITION of parties. Hence, the party will notify the general public as at when it will officially begin new registration of members across the states political wards and polling units.
Any membership card issued or collected is not from the leadership of the party.
Any update as regards to the above clarification shall be communicated appropriately.
Sincerely,
Ibrahim Hassan mamman
ADC Publicity Secretary
Yobe State
