Factional national chairman of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Nafiu Bala, has denied claims that he is working for the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
A suit filed by Bala led to the sack of the David Mark-led executives of the ADC and the nullification of the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
Speaking during the weekend, Bala said the APC agent label placed on him is false and mischievous.
“I am not an APC agent,” he declared, while reacting to claims making the rounds that he was planted in the ADC to scatter the opposition.
He accused his traducers of cooking up the story to rubbish him before party members, insisting he has no secret deal with the APC or any of its leaders.
According to him, the real problem in the ADC is not him but a group of persons who are desperate to seize the structure of the party by force.
“The party must survive this crisis. We cannot allow personal ambition to destroy what we have built,” he said.
He appealed to members across the country to disregard the propaganda against him and remain focused on repositioning the ADC as a credible alternative.
