According to reports, on Wednesday, July 2, 2025, a group of opposition leaders in the nation decided to run against President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election by using the ADC as their platform.
A founding member and longtime national chairman of the party, Nwosu had resigned along with other party officials to make room for former Senate President David Mark and other coalition members to take over as the party’s leader.

Igbokwe responded by implying in a post on his official Facebook page that Nwosu had fought for the party for years and that now was his moment to make a profit.

His message says: “Chief Okey Nwosu is the luckiest man in this ADC Coalition.” For many years, he has been having trouble with this party.

Go on, Nwannem, gather as much as you can. Your time has come. You didn’t get it easily. However, the tiny bird is unable to fly. “Cash out, bro.”

In the meantime, former Transportation Minister and two-term Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi has claimed that the former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration improved Nigeria’s economic standing and security.

According to 2027 coalition member Amaechi, President Bola Tinubu was never the best candidate to be Nigeria’s leader.

The accusations were reportedly made by the former minister on Wednesday in Abuja when the African Democratic Congress (ADC) interim national leadership was unveiled.

According to the former All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, he has doubted Tinubu’s ability to lead and cautioned that the current government has fallen short of Nigerians’ expectations.

Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has been challenged by veteran journalist and Ovation Magazine publisher Dele Momodu to switch to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Momodu said in an interview with Arise News that Wike would rather rule in hell than serve in heaven.
He attributed the protracted internal turmoil of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to Wike’s resentment about not being selected for vice president in 2023.

Momodu raged that the governors of the party have no more authority and that Wike may now disrespect them as he wants without repercussions.

“Today’s PDP governors are helpless,” he said. Wike will go on there and disparage and mistreat them. They are unable to even speak. According to what I’ve heard, Damagum is now claiming that he will court them now that folks have departed. According to another account, he stated that they would be sanctioned.

“They have already departed, so you cannot woo them or sanction them. These aren’t children. They spent two years pleading. Wike has stayed distraught just because his campaign for vice president was unsuccessful. Every time I talk about him, I mention it. Good person, he’s working on infrastructure, but you can’t overlook this rage?

“I dare him to join APC tomorrow,” Momodu added, implying that Wike would choose to remain in the PDP rather than join the APC in order to maintain his position of authority. Tell him to join APC if he has the courage. We’ll welcome you when you’re ready to join us, the president informed him the other day. He is unable to. Because he believes that ruling in hell is preferable to serving in heaven.

Omoyele Sowore, the African Action Congress’ (AAC) 2023 presidential candidate, has said that he will not join the coalition of opposition leaders currently building in front of the general elections in 2027, calling its members “corrupt and complicit in Nigeria’s ruin.”
In a sharply worded Facebook post on Wednesday, Sowore reportedly expressed his stance against calls for unity among opposition leaders after they adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as their political platform.
Earlier Wednesday, human rights attorney Deji Adeyanju urged Sowore to unite with other opposition figures in the effort to topple President Bola Tinubu’s All Progressives Congress (APC) government.

However, Sowore quickly hung up the phone, stating that he could not stand with those who had supposedly betrayed the nation and betrayed the confidence of the people.
“I did not join Bola Ahmed Tinubu in distributing heroin and cocaine in Chicago,” the former presidential candidate claimed in a Facebook post.

“I didn’t participate in Atiku Abubakar’s heist of Nigerian Customs.”

“I refrained from joining David Mark on June 12 when he embezzled money intended to repair our phones and subsequently contributed to the demise of our democratic aspirations.

Under Muhammadu Buhari’s leadership, I refrained from participating in the treasury robbery and human rights violations committed by Abubakar Malami, SAN.

“I refrained from participating in the massacre of Shiites and promoting religious genocide in Southern Kaduna alongside Nasir El-Rufai.”

“When Sani Abacha was tearing apart Nigeria piece by piece, I did not accompany Peter Obi to the Tin Can Ports to help him clear cargo for him.

“I didn’t stand with Sule Lamido and the SDP traitors who betrayed MKO Abiola and the Nigerian people’s will.

While Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi gambled away Rivers State funds and abandoned the already-paid mini-rail project, I refrained from joining him.

“I’ve never been a part of an armed robbery gang. No matter how well-liked, influential, or fantastical, I have never sworn loyalty to a cult.

“I just have one loyalty: to the silenced, the defrauded, the disenfranchised, and the downtrodden. Only those who are prepared and eager to put an end to this national nightmare that these characters mentioned above have created will have my support!

Let people know that I support the front lines of justice. The truth coalition. a squad of revolutionaries to restore Nigerians’ dignity.

“These bad actors must be eradicated from Nigeria.”

The African Democratic Congress’s (ADC) intended debut as a unifying political platform for Nigeria’s opposition has been derailed.
On Wednesday, hours before the show began, the location where the event was scheduled to take place abruptly canceled a fully paid reservation.
However, the hotel would no longer host the event because of an unidentified “internal compliance matter,” the organizers were notified Wednesday morning.

A screenshot of the hotel’s message was posted on the Instagram page of Dele Momodu, a leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The text said, “Dear Respected Customer, Once again, we are grateful that you choose the Wells Carlton Hotel and Apartments.

Unfortunately, we must notify you that we will not be able to host your planned event owing to an internal compliance issue that we recently discovered.

“We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and acknowledge that the event is less than 24 hours away.”

Opposition leaders have reacted sharply to the abrupt cancelation, with Momodu accusing political meddling.

“The coalition’s reservation of a venue for the unveiling of the adopted party, ADC, was abruptly and unilaterally canceled by the hotel management because of what insiders described as fear of retaliation from APC operatives, demonstrating the ongoing intimidation of opposition by a nervous government.”

The opposition forces are ready to fiercely oppose the ruling party, and Momodu said that this would not stop them.
