Atiku Abubakar, the former vice president, has formally joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC), the coalition-backed party with which he is anticipated to associate himself prior to the 2027 elections.
On Monday, Atiku announced the news via his X account, sharing a picture of himself with his ADC membership card along with the succinct words, “It’s official.”
His action comes after he resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in July due to a protracted internal turmoil.
His affiliation with the coalition party, which he had earlier supported in July as a platform for opposition leaders like Peter Obi and Babachir Lawal to run against President Bola Tinubu in 2027, has now been formally established.

According to reports, Atiku and other opposition leaders had previously postponed formally registering with the ADC.
Recall that the opposition unveiled ADC as a platform ahead of the 2027 general election with former Senate President David Mark as the National Chairman and ex-Interior Minister Rauf Aregbesola as the party’s National Secretary as well as former Sports Minister, Bolaji Abdullahi as the National Publicity Secretary.
