As reported by Daily Trust, Mark stated this while speaking at the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) meeting in Abuja on Tuesday, October 7, 20225.
“We will field only credible and viable candidates who meet our four-pillar standard. Nigerians will accept nothing less.”
Mark explained that the ADC's mission goes beyond winning elections and attaining power in 2027.
He explained that it is to build a leadership model that leaves a legacy that future generations will be proud of.
“To do this, we will build a party that outlives us all. Other parties revolve around individuals; the ADC will revolve around rules, policies, programmes, people, and results. We will insist on team spirit, collaboration, and internal democracy. The supremacy we seek is the supremacy of our constitution and institutions over everything: personality, improvisation, and idiosyncrasy.”
ADC primary: Atiku will beat Obi, Amaechi
Recall that Atiku Abubakar's loyalist, Demola Olarewaju, shared how the former vice-president would beat Peter Obi and Rotimi Amaechi in the ADC primary election.
Olarewaju debunked the idea that Atiku would spend from his vast wealth to sway candidates to vote for him.
He gave an analysis of how he would achieve that and claimed it was a model that had worked for him.
