2023: APC, ADC to merge in Adamawa

The All Progressives Congress (APC) and African Democratic Congress (ADC) have announced plans to merge in Adamawa ahead of the 2023 governorship election in the state.

The parties said this would enable them to wrest power from the ruling  Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state.

Speaking at a  meeting between the two parties on Saturday in Yola, Prof. Tahir Mamman, of APC and Chairman, North East Caretaker/Extraordinary National Convection Planning Committee, said the mandate was to resolve all grievances within  the party for success.

He said that it was  high time they joined hands and resources to takeover the governorship position from the PDP.

“You all knew that we were together in power in 2015 and at the end, we broke up which resulted to our failure during the 2019 general elections in the state.

“If we merge,  definitely we will succeed  since all the stakeholders will contribute to ensure that the party is  successful come 2023,” he said.

Alhaji Ibrahim Bilal,  State Chairman of the APC, said the party would soon begin membership registration and urged its  supporters to register.

“We all know who we are;  we should forgive one another and work together toward our success in 2023,”  he said.

He urged ADC supporters to  pray for the best out of the merger before the party would make its final position known to the APC in a few days.
