A faction of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) aligned with the party’s former presidential candidate, Dumebi Kachikwu, has dissolved the National Working Committee (NWC) led by David Mark.

The faction subsequently constituted a new NWC to manage the affairs of the party.

The development was announced at the faction’s national convention held in Abuja on Sunday and attended by delegates from across the country.

Abdulkadir Bashir was announced as its national chairman, while Johnny Derek emerged as deputy national chairman.

Kennedy Odion was named national secretary, Joe Aro as national treasurer, Chris Ugwu as national publicity secretary, and Elias as national organising secretary.
