The accusation is contained in a communique released by the National Vice Chairman and zonal secretary, Chilos Godsent and Frank Agumadu respectively after an emergency meeting yesterday in Enugu State.

Also,the Zonal Working Committee of the party which has placed a confidence vote on the National chairman has also clarified that “That by the provisions of Article 14(1)(i) of the ADC Constitution, it’s only the National Chairman (NC) of our Party that has the legal and constitutional powers to convene any National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the party and also to preside over such NEC meeting.

“That ADC South East Zone therefore wishes to support and align itself to the resolutions and position of the National Working Committee (NWC), National Executive Committee (NEC) and the joint meeting of the NEC and the Governorship Candidates of ADC in the forthcoming 2023 general elections.”

The Zonal Working Committee according to the communique has also extended the tenure of Chief Ralphs Okey Nwosu led National Working Committee (NWC) by One Year.
