Controversial activist and member of African Democratic Congress, (ADC), Aisha Yesufu, has issued a public apology to the former Executive Director of “Enough is Enough Nigeria” group, Yemi Adamolekun. This comes after a “mix-up” involving her inclusion in the party’s “Wise Men and Women Policy and Manifesto Committee.
Adamolekun had taken to X after seeing her name included in a published list of the committee members for ADC. She queried when she became a member of the ADC.
Her words,
“ADC! ADC! ADC! How many times did I call you? This is not how to build credibility o! Please show me evidence of when I joined your party! Na wa…”.
Responding to her rant ADC spokesperson, Abdullahi stated that ADC believes that developing workable public policies isn’t a task to be carried out by politicians alone.
His words,
“It is important to point out that not everyone on the ADC Policy and Manifesto Committee is a member of the ADC. Many are not even politicians.
“This is because the ADC believes that the task of developing workable public policies for the benefit of all Nigerians should not be left to politicians alone”.
Reacting to the back and forth, Yesufu who is a prominent member of the party’s Revalidation, Mobilisation and Registration Committee, apologised for the “mix-up.”
She wrote,
“This is inexcusable, and on behalf of my party, accept my apologies for this mix-up. We do not take you and your need to have a better Nigeria for granted.
“Like you rightly pointed out, you ought to have been informed and your consent gotten before your name is published. This is well noted, and going forward we will continue to ensure due diligence.
“Thank you for calling our attention to this. We can only get better when we get such feedback and improve accordingly. The work to rebuilding Nigeria is enormous, and in our eagerness to start off, we must never forget due process and diligence.”
