He said that the entire chairmen owed their allegiance to the current leadership of the ADC adding that there is no dissenting voice among them
.
Earlier, the acting National Publicity Secretary of the party, Malam Bolaji Abdullahi explained that the meeting was convened to reassure the state chairmen that the leadership of the party would work with them throughout the process.
