A suspended member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has issued a 14-day ultimatum to the party’s leadership, warning that he will take legal action if his suspension is not reversed. The move has sparked fresh debate about internal democracy within the party.

In a statement made available to the public, the affected member described his suspension as unjust and against the party’s constitution. He claimed that he was not given a fair hearing before the disciplinary action was taken, insisting that due process was ignored.

The suspended member said the decision has damaged his reputation and political standing. He stressed that he would not hesitate to approach the court if the party fails to address his concerns within the stated timeframe, adding that all legal options are on the table.

As of the time of filing this report, the ADC leadership has not officially responded to the ultimatum. Observers say the party may be forced to act quickly to prevent the issue from escalating into a full-blown legal battle that could further divide its ranks.
