The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has moved to clarify the roles and responsibilities of two key figures in its Kaduna State leadership structure, putting an end to circulating speculations about their positions within the party.
Official Positions Confirmed
In an official statement released by the party's National Publicity Secretary, Mabel Oboh, the ADC confirmed that former Minister of Finance, Senator Nenadi Usman, serves as the National Vice Chairman (North West) of the party. This clarification comes amid growing confusion about her exact role within the party's hierarchy.
Similarly, the party addressed the position of Alhaji Bashir Saidu, confirming his role as the Secretary of the ADC in Kaduna State. The clarification aims to streamline the party's operations and ensure clear communication channels within the Kaduna chapter.
Addressing Internal Coordination
The party leadership emphasized the importance of proper coordination and communication among all members and organs of the ADC in Kaduna State. This move appears designed to strengthen the party's structure ahead of future political activities and elections in the region.
"The clarification became necessary to ensure smooth operations and effective leadership within the party," the statement noted, highlighting the need for unambiguous role definitions to prevent any operational bottlenecks.
Strategic Positioning in Kaduna
Kaduna State remains a crucial political battleground in Northern Nigeria, and the ADC's move to clarify its leadership structure signals the party's intention to consolidate its presence in the region. With experienced politicians like Nenadi Usman in leadership positions, the party aims to strengthen its appeal to voters in the North West geopolitical zone.
The clarification also serves to project an image of organizational stability within the ADC, potentially attracting more political stakeholders to join the party's ranks in Kaduna and beyond.
