We Will Not Go To Court This Time Around, We Will Settle This Matter On The Streets- Dino Melaye.

Senator Dino Melaye, a former Kogi State lawmaker, has announced that the African Democratic Congress will pursue alternative means of resolving its leadership crisis instead of relying on additional court cases.

Melaye disclosed this in a statement shared through his official X account on Friday, November 6, 2026, following a Federal High Court decision in Abuja that invalidated the party’s executive committee.

The court’s decision affected the positions of former Senate President David Mark and former Interior Minister Rauf Aregbesola, removing them as National Chairman and National Secretary of the ADC, respectively.

The development has raised concerns about the party’s leadership structure, internal unity and ability to prepare effectively for the 2027 general elections.

Speaking about the judgment, Melaye suggested that the party was changing its approach to the dispute and would no longer depend on the judiciary to determine its leadership future.

He insisted that the ADC would stand by its position despite the legal setback, declaring that the matter would be resolved through political engagement and action outside the courtroom.

Melaye’s statement has generated further debate about the direction the opposition party intends to take in addressing its internal disagreements.

The major concern now is whether the ADC can successfully manage the leadership dispute, overcome divisions among its members and establish a united political structure before the next general election.
