News Investigators/ African Democratic Congress (ADC) has said that the tenure of all the newly-elected state executives and other party officers will not commence immediately after their election.
The party gave the clarification in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, on Friday in Abuja.
It stated that their tenure would only begin upon the expiration of the current executives’ term and their formal inauguration on May 12 or any other officially-communicated date.
“For the avoidance of doubt, all existing executives remain the duly recognised officers of the party until the completion of this constitutional transition process.
“Accordingly, all newly-elected executives, particularly at the state level, are advised to take note and desist from any action, representation or conduct that may contravene this clear constitutional directive or create confusion within the party structure,” it said.
The party reiterated its commitment to orderliness, discipline and strict adherence to its constitution and democratic processes.
