ADC: Ogaji Says Former Senate President Mark Will Lead the Coalition to Victory.

A Senatorial candidate from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the 2023 elections, Hon. Chief Bright Igodo Ogaji, has stated that the selection of former Senate President, Senator David Mark, as the Interim National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), will drive the party towards success in the 2027 elections. Ogaji also expressed his support for the newly established leadership of the party in Benue State, characterizing it as a new beginning for both the state and Nigeria as a whole. It is noteworthy that the ADC was officially inaugurated last week in Abuja by prominent opposition figures in Nigeria, along with representatives from the ruling All Progressives Congress. Senator Mark was appointed as Interim National Chairman, while former Governor of Osun State, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, was named Interim National Secretary. The party was subsequently launched in Benue State on Wednesday, taking over the Secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). During this event, former Speaker pro tempore of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Terngu Tsegba, and former Member representing Obi/Oju Federal Constituency, Rt. Hon. Samson Okwu, were appointed as Interim Chairman and Secretary, respectively. In response, Chief Ogaji, in a statement he personally signed, conveyed his strong confidence in the ADC's leadership at both the Benue and National levels, encouraging his supporters to register with the party as a new vehicle that would lead the people to their promised future. The former Chairman of Oju Local Government Council in Benue State, whose numerous supporters made a significant presence at the event, praised the exceptional leadership qualities of Senator Mark throughout the years, referring to him as a transformative figure who has emerged from challenges to liberate Nigeria from the grips of oppression and underdevelopment. He remarked, "The new face of ADC (Senator Mark) is undoubtedly a transformative leader who has navigated through adversity to free Nigeria from the chains of oppression and underdevelopment, and to guide Benue and Nigeria towards a path of inclusive development, prosperity, and national pride. The rise of his leadership alongside that of the Benue leadership has ushered in a revitalized Nigeria poised for development. "I call upon all my supporters, both domestically and internationally, to rally behind these esteemed leaders of our region, to ensure the success of the new party for the benefit of the Benue people and all Nigerians," stated Ogaji.
