Mark Says Deregistration Of ADC, Others Puts Judiciary On Trial

National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Senator David Mark, has said the Nigerian judiciary, rather than the ADC, is currently on trial over the controversy surrounding the deregistration of the party and four others.
Mark made the remarks yesterday while speaking at the ADC Strategic Communications Retreat in Abuja, where he criticised the handling of matters relating to the party by Justice Peter Lifu and described recent judicial actions as unprecedented.
In a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Kola Ologbondiyan, the former Senate President argued that contrary to public perception, the ADC was not the institution under scrutiny.
