The Advanced Peoples Democratic Alliance (APDA), says Chief Raymond Dokpesi, Chairman of DAAR Communications, is not the founder of the party, but its media partner.
The party made the clarification in a statement recently.
It also refuted claims from Dokpesi that the party was registered to act as an appendage of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The statement said that APDA’s National Chairman, Malam Shitu Mohammed, went to Dokpesi to partner with his media outfit during the process leading to the registration of the party.
“We challenge him to name the PDP governors and the Federal Government Agency which he claims is sponsoring APDA.
“These two clarifications would easily exonerate him or clearly show that his claims are not true, for what it is worth.’’
“The Caretaker Chairman, BOT Chairman and the National Publicity Secretary of the party have several times issued statements to this effect.
“APDA is not a plan B to any political party, but welcomes any political leaning that identifies with its social democratic ideals which is hinged on returning our country back to the path of prosperity and inclusive governance.
“We wish to put it on record that the APDA family rejoices with PDP on their victory at the Supreme Court, because we felt it would deepen our democratic space.’’
