ABEOKUTA– Segun Sowunmi, the former spokesperson to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential candidate at the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar has described the adoption of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), as a coalition of commotion, confusion, corruption and mismanagement.
Sowunmi, the Promoter and Chief Convener of the Alternative, a pan Nigerian Movement, stated this, Thursday in Abeokuta
Opposition leaders on Wednesday adopted ADC as a platform for a coalition pushing to unseat President Bola Tinubu in the next election.
Former Senate President, David Mark and a two – time governor of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola, were respectively enthroned as the Interim National Chairman and Secretary of the party.
While speaking at the Southwest Town hall meeting of the Alternative, Sowunmi stated that, “It’s the right of politicians to do whatever they want to do but it’s the duty of citizens to look at them and say, you have done this kind of trick one time too many.
“That party, the ADC, has been in existence for sometimes. Some of our people have been there and they even have contested issue around their Chairmanship.
“Yet, today, you have left your own party and you have rushed in there. If you go there quietly like decent people so that you don’t carry the same character you had in your party to destroy your party into a new forum, people would have respected you.
“But what are you doing? You’re huffing and puffing as if the party does not have members before. Who will follow such people?
“So, when people ask me what I have to say about the coalition or whatever they call it? I will just say, the merry-go-round of the musical chair they have been doing since 1992 did not work them and will not work now,” he said.
The PDP Chieftain said Nigerians have up to next year to decide if they’ll re-elect President Bola Tinubu or not.
He, however, ruled out the leaders in the coalition, saying it will be a waste of time if Nigerians entrust them with power.
“In the meantime, we may not know who can to be fit in, but we know these ones can not do anything. It will be a waste of everybody’s time even if they try it,” he added
