However, Dr. Kome confirmed his resignation, stating that he is now a member of PDP.
Contacted, Kome said ADC lacked political direction and, hence, was not the third force lacking in the country’s political space.
His words: “Structurally speaking, there isn’t a ‘Third Force’ political party yet to guarantee election victory in Nigeria’s political space at the moment. The truth must be told.
“Moreover, ADC as a political party lacks political direction.”
Dr. Kome said the party was structurally defective in leadership and discipline, lacked internal cohesion and disrespects the party’s constitution.
“I am in politics to serve the people. Therefore, I need the right platform to succeed in my quest,” he added.

Adejare Omiyale Kayode Adejare, chairman Yaba Local Council Development Area (LCDA), in this interview, tells SEYE OLUMIDE how his administration has fared in the last four years and likely areas of improvement. How are you coping with influx of commercial motorcycle operators, and how do you identify them? By the time Lagos State government came up with the policy to ban commercial motorcycles operators, we went all out to enforce the policy to the last order because Yaba LCDA is one of the areas where the use of keke NAPEP and commercial motorcycle were totally banned and we followed it. Although the #EndSARS crisis made the government to relax the policy a bit but notwithstanding as at today, we don’t allow commercial motorcycle operators along our major routes except on inner roads. I know that the state is seriously working on another policy that will reduce the activities of Keke NAPEP and commercial motorcycles.
