A top member of the party, Dr. James Okoroma, whose name was forwarded to the commission as the National Secretary of the party, told Punch on phone that the ADP paid the compulsory fee since January this year.
Okoroma stated that the ADP also fulfilled the requirement for the submission of the list of its National Working Committee members to the commission in January.
He said a team sent from the commission visited the ADP’s headquarters in Asokoro, Abuja, and concluded its verification for the process of the registration of the party in February.
Okoroma added that the ADP was only waiting for its certificate of registration from INEC.
According to him, members of the ADP National Working Committee, whose names were on the list submitted to INEC, are Yagbaji Sani (National Chairman), Mr. David Bichi, (National Legal Adviser), a former National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Rex Onyeabo (National Chairman, South-East), a former Minister of State for Agriculture and Rural Development, Mr. Nojeem Awodele (National Vice Chairman, South West), and others.
Okoroma said the planned party had several prominent politicians including senators, former ministers and others across the country.
How far will they go? Time will tell.
