According to Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, a prominent member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and a former governor of Borno State, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) would quickly become obsolete.
The former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stated that the opposition party will be destroyed by the ADC chieftains’ aspirations for president during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday.
He said the ADC will “die down in three months” and described it as a flimsy political experiment fueled by conflicting presidential aspirations.
Sheriff responded to rumors that he is planning to join the ADC by saying: “You mentioned that people are bringing up my name, that I was attending the ADC. Not accurate. Which ADC? Do they belong to a political party?
“Give them three months.” Since all of them are “presidential materials,” the party will disband. And out of all of them, only one will run for president.
Sheriff made the argument that the ADC is unable to duplicate the APC’s achievements, emphasizing that the ADC lacks the foundation that the APC did, having formed through the union of parties with governors and national institutions.

Nearly fifteen state governments were participating when we were forming the APC. Four states accompanied President Bola Tinubu. The All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) arrived with perhaps five or six. Breakaway PDP had four. We now have over 20 states, 73 senators, and a resounding majority in the House of Representatives,” he stated.
“They all want to be president at any cost,” the former senator continued. They are free to strive, but in terms of politics, they are nonexistent. The ADC is nonexistent.
