African Democratic Congress (ADC)<\/p>\n
As political realignments gather momentum ahead of future elections in Delta State, the African Democratic Congress (ADC<\/a>) has announced plans to register about 2.3 million members, positioning itself as a potential disruptor in a state long dominated by the All Progressives Congress (APC<\/a>) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP<\/a>).\n<\/p>\n The party\u2019s strategy was unveiled at the weekend in Asaba by a national member of the ADC Membership Revalidation, Mobilisation and Registration Committee, Prof. Festus Arunaye, during the inauguration of the Delta State chapter of the committee.\n<\/p>\n Arunaye said the large-scale registration drive is aimed at redefining political participation in the state and providing what he described as \u201creal dividends of democracy\u201d to residents.\n<\/p>\n He said the target underscores the party\u2019s growing confidence in Delta\u2019s highly competitive political environment, where established parties enjoy deeper structures, greater resources and wider grassroots networks.\n<\/p>\n Arunaye insisted that the ADC\u2019s appeal lies in its identity as a \u201cparty of the masses,\u201d stressing that no single individual, regardless of wealth or influence, is allowed to dominate the party\u2019s affairs.<\/p>\n He disclosed that prospective members would be required to pay a token \u20a6500 registration fee, adding that the exercise would be conducted through both electronic and physical platforms.\n<\/p>\n Urging party members and coordinators to take the registration exercise seriously, Arunaye said its outcome would shape the party\u2019s future fortunes in the state.\n<\/p>\n He also dismissed speculation about internal divisions, declaring that the ADC in Delta State remains united and free of factions.At a stakeholders\u2019 meeting, registration materials including ADC membership booklets, party flags, branded face caps and Nigerian flags were formally presented to local government area coordinators.\n<\/p>\n The items were handed over by a member of the party\u2019s transition committee, Mr. George Timinimi, to facilitate grassroots mobilisation across the state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"African Democratic Congress (ADC) As political realignments gather momentum ahead of future elections in Delta State, the African…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10559,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[5973,1931,122,1086],"class_list":{"0":"post-15197","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nigeria","8":"tag-adc","9":"tag-apc","10":"tag-nigeria","11":"tag-pdp"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15197","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15197"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15197\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10559"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15197"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15197"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/africa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15197"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
