His remarks followed the defection of Peter Obi and Rabi’u Kwankwaso from the ADC to the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC), a move that has further intensified debate over the party’s stability.
Amadi said the ADC failed to properly address foundational political questions such as zoning arrangements, consensus-building, and the mode of primary elections.
According to him, these unresolved issues have contributed significantly to internal disagreements and weakened party cohesion at a critical time.
He argued that the party’s inability to establish clear internal structures has left it vulnerable to political setbacks and defections.
“The ADC crisis is self-inflicted. Lack of clarity on foundational issues is the bane,” he said.
Political observers note that the developments highlight broader challenges facing opposition parties as they reposition ahead of future elections.
