Former Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika
Former Minister of Aviation Hadi Sirika has denied dumping the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga had listed Sirika among the APC chieftains who dumped the party for the ADC.
Onanuga berated the former minister following his involvement in the unveiling of the ADC as the platform of the opposition coalition in Abuja on Wednesday, July 2, 2025.
Reacting via a statement on X on Thursday night, Sirika denied joining the ADC.
The former minister, who served under the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari, said he remains committed to his principal and the APC.

Sirika added that has no intention of leaving the APC.
He said: “I watched Nyesom Wike today (Thursday) on Arise claiming that I have joined the so called coalition. Whilst still in shock, I read on Premium Times this evening, a report credited to Chief Bayo Onanuga, making the same claim.
“I am a founding member of the APC, I gave it its name. I have no plans to leave it. I will always be where President Buhari is. If you must hate him, hate me too. I have no apology.
“At their levels, they ought to fact check. I call upon our loyal members to ignore both statements and consider them pedestrian.”
