ADC Secretariat Set Ablaze in Ekiti Ahead of Reconfiguration Ceremony

The Ekiti State secretariat of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) was set ablaze in the early hours of Monday, in what party officials have described as a “cowardly act” aimed at undermining the party’s growing influence and organisational strength in the state.

Confirming the incident, the party’s State Leader, Aare Amerijoye DOT.B, stated that the attack appeared to be politically motivated, coming just hours before the scheduled Reconfiguration and Affirmation Ceremony of ADC Executives across all levels from Ward and Local Government to Senatorial Districts and the State Executive Committee.

“Our Party Secretariat was set ablaze this morning by those threatened by the rising momentum and formidable organisational structure that the Ekiti ADC is building,” Amerijoye said in a statement. “This cowardly act is most unfortunate, yet it will only fortify our determination and unity. The formidable Ekiti State ADC has come to stay.”

Despite the setback, the party affirmed that the planned ceremony would go ahead as scheduled.

“Our spirit remains unbroken; our vision, unstoppable,” Amerijoye added.
