ABUJA The African Democratic Congress ADC has dismissed the Presidencys clarification on Vice President Kashim Shettimas recent comments regarding the Presidents constitutional powers, describing it as a mere attempt at political correctness.
The party criticised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, accusing him of ignoring constitutional boundaries and weakening democratic governance in Rivers State.
In a statement issued on Friday Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, ADCs Interim National Publicity Secretary and Spokesperson, defended the Vice Presidents comments, insisting they were constitutionally accurate.
Abdullahi stated, The truth must not be lost in the fog of political correctness. The Vice President needs to stand by his forthright and courageous statement, which affirms that the President has no constitutional power to remove an elected councilor, not to talk of a sitting Governor.
