Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has criticized the recent national convention organized by the David-Mark faction of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, describing it as disorganised and lacking credibility.
In a strongly worded statement via his X handle on Saturday,
he said the event reflected poor coordination and internal disunity, alleging
that participants appeared uncomfortable due to inadequate facilities,
including the absence of functional air-conditioning.
“I watched a faction of the ADC conducting what they
described as their party convention a few days ago & it was pitiful.
“I saw an overcrowded hall filled with hot, sweaty, men
& women” he said.
He further claimed the gathering was marked by disorderly
conduct and confusion among attendees.
“They sweated profusely, argued loudly amongst themselves,
broke into fisticuffs.”
He went further to recount an incident involving an elderly
participant who mistakenly referenced another party during his speech, which he
said created an awkward moment.
“He took the microphone and screamed ‘APC’ before realising
he was actually in an ADC Convention” he said.
Fani-Kayode also criticised the overall appearance and tone
of the event, portraying it as lacking seriousness and cohesion.
“Forgive me for saying so but this was indeed a strange
gathering who have no sense of purpose, unity or direction.
“What we witnessed was more of a gathering of hungry, ragged
& desperate jackals & long-rejected souls that are craving for a return
to power rather than the Convention of a legitimate & serious political
party.
“Mr. President rightly described theirs as a “street
Convention”. What he failed to add was that it was a street Convention of
vagabonds, riggers & wanderers.” He stated.
He dismissed the political strength of the faction,
insisting it poses no real challenge ahead of future elections.
“Bottom line? The ADC ain’t going nowhere!” he concluded.
