Former Kogi West Senator Dino Melaye has launched a scathing attack on Nafiu Bala, the factional National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), accusing him of selling his conscience amid the raging leadership crisis rocking the party.
Melaye made the remarks during an interview on Arise Television on Wednesday night. He recalled that Bala personally attended the ADC’s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on July 29, 2025, where the leadership of Interim National Chairman Senator David Mark, Rauf Aregbesola and others was ratified.
The meeting was monitored by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).According to Melaye, Bala’s sudden opposition to the leadership is hypocritical. He said:“On July 29, 2025, we had a NEC meeting that Nafiu was present. In that meeting, the leadership of Aregbesola, David Mark, and others were ratified. The one who has commercialized his conscience, the one who is laying claims now, was present at that meeting. INEC was also present and monitored that NEC meeting.”
Melaye noted that in August 2025, the party formally notified INEC of the new leadership, which the commission acknowledged. He stressed that Senator David Mark became the authentic National Chairman from May 29, 2025, describing the NEC as the highest decision-making body of the party.
He added that Nafiu Bala only approached the court on September 2, 2025, months after INEC’s recognition — and had earlier resigned as National Chairman on May 17, 2025.
