2027: ADC Warns Members to Quit Other Political Parties

Members of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) who continue to support other political parties have been urged to step down in advance of the national elections in 2027.

Bolaji Abdullahi, the party’s national publicity secretary, made this accusation Thursday following a caucus meeting that was attended by prominent political figures and party leaders in Abuja.

Abdullahi stated, “The caucus was silent on the timeline, despite the fact that a final order has been given to all members to resign membership of other political parties.”

Additionally, all matters pertaining to the African Democratic Association, or ADA, had been resolved, the caucus declared.

In regards to the ADA, the Coalition has put everything on hold. Thus, they have no stake in the association’s registration or otherwise,” he continued.

The ADC’s presidential candidates have decided to support the primary winner, the party’s spokesperson said in reference to the 2027 contest.

“Whoever wins the primary election will have the support of all presidential candidates,” he said.

In addition, he disclosed that the National Working Committee, or NWC, would shortly release the dates of the Osun and Ekiti primaries in advance of the off-cycle governorship elections in both states.

In attendance were former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, National Secretary Ogbeni Rauf, former Kaduna State Governor Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, former Sokoto State Governor Senator Aminu Tambuwal, former Rivers State Governor Chibuike Amaechi, and National Chairman David Mark.

Although he was not present, Peter Obi, the national leader of the Labour Party, apologized and reaffirmed his dedication to the partnership.
