In a statement released on Tuesday by the party’s spokesperson, Bolaji Abdullahi, the ADC acknowledged the role of sustained public advocacy, both online and on the ground, in influencing the Senate’s action.
“We must stay alert to avoid last-minute changes or loopholes that could undermine the process,” Abdullahi said.
“Democracy thrives on active engagement, persistence, and sometimes peaceful dissent.”
Abdullahi described the Senate’s move as evidence that collective civic pressure can counter partisan interests.
The opposition party urged Nigerians not to relent in their efforts to strengthen democracy.
“However, we must not relent. This is only a step forward,” said the ADC.
“We must now ensure that this momentum is sustained until the amended bill is not only passed but duly assented to by the president, properly gazetted, and becomes an enforceable law of the Federal Republic,” it added.
The ADC urged Nigerians to maintain vigilance and continue applying pressure until the bill is signed into law by the president, officially published, and fully enacted.
