Prominent activist Aisha Yesufu has been selected as Deputy Chairperson of a special committee set up by the African Democratic Congress to oversee the verification and restructuring of its membership database.
The initiative was officially launched by the party’s National Chairman, David Mark, who emphasised that the exercise represents a major step toward repositioning the ADC for stronger national relevance. He noted that building unity, improving internal coordination, and enhancing electoral readiness were among the primary objectives behind the programme.
Mark explained that maintaining a credible and up-to-date membership register is essential for any political party seeking legitimacy and effective participation in national affairs. He stressed that the verification process aligns with the ADC’s values of fairness, transparency, justice, and people-oriented leadership.
The committee, which consists of 20 members, was constituted by the party’s National Working Committee and has been assigned several responsibilities. These include confirming existing memberships, onboarding new members, improving grassroots mobilisation, and ensuring consistent data collection nationwide using both manual documentation and digital tools. Plans are also underway to introduce redesigned membership cards equipped with unique security features tailored to each state.
Leading the team is Kashim Imam as Chairman, while Dr. Sekonte Davies serves as Secretary. Yesufu’s appointment as Deputy Chairperson reflects the party’s strategy of involving respected civic voices in its internal reforms and organisational strengthening.
Speaking on behalf of the committee, Imam assured party leaders that the assignment would be handled with full transparency and commitment. He described the exercise as a turning point for the party, aimed at transforming it into a more inclusive and citizen-focused political platform. He also disclosed that the committee has been given a 30-day deadline and that registration and verification activities have already commenced across urban centres and remote communities nationwide.
