“There will be no discrimination or change of anyone. Everyone will be treated equally, regardless of whoever.
“The party is for people, not for a person. We want people to take possession of the party, so we encourage him to consult and nominate potential leaders.
“None of us will be involved directly in this process, and all sections of society will be represented. There will be a state leader for disabled, women and all other groups.
“Then, no one feels agitated by the potential leadership here. I have sent a message to let you know that I am in Benue that you are interested,” he said.
Mark announced a pro -tempered leadership of 7 men of the party, which according to him was established after a wide consultation.

“The ADC will rule this state with the fear of God; we will adhere to the Constitution. We will provide good governance and guarantee its safety.
