The National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Senator David Mark, has stated that the party relies on a robust, credible, and verifiable membership base, bolstered by efficient mobilization structures throughout the federation.

He remarked, “ADC was established on the principles of justice, equity, accountability, and governance that prioritizes the people.”

While addressing the inauguration of the Membership, Revalidation, Mobilisation, and Registration (MRMR) Committee in Abuja on Wednesday, Mark emphasized that no political party can seek national significance without a strong, active, and well-documented membership.

He asserted that membership is the lifeblood of any democratic organization, as it influences legitimacy, strength, outreach, and ultimately, electoral success.

The party's National Chairman indicated that the establishment of the MRMR Committee is essential to revalidate current members, register new ones, enhance grassroots presence, and synchronize membership records across the nation as the party prepares for future political activities.

He clarified that the committee has been assigned a vital national task, highlighting that this event represents a significant step in the ongoing efforts to reposition the party for growth, strength, and internal cohesion.

He acknowledged the urgent necessity of this initiative, which followed the resolution of their National Working Committee (NWC) that led to the formation of the Committee.

Mark then urged the committee members to perform their responsibilities with integrity, fairness, transparency, and a profound sense of patriotism.

The committee chairman, Sashimi Imam, who is leading the 20-member committee, accepted the responsibility in his speech, promising to fulfill it diligently.
