The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of plotting to pressure the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to recognise Mr Nafiu Bala Gombe, an expelled member of the party, who it identified as President Bola Ahmed Timubu's ally, as the party’s National Chairman.
ADC, in a statement issued in Abuja and signed by its spokesperson, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, described the move as a calculated attempt by elements within the ruling party to manufacture confusion within the fold.
Bolaji further described the move as "part of the elaborate plot by the ruling party to ensure that Tinubu emerges unopposed as the only serious contender on the ballot in 2027”.
He maintained that there was no legal basis for any confusion as the ADC leadership remained firmly under Senator David Mark, following a combined meeting of the National Working Committee and National Executive Committee witnessed by INEC officials in July 2025.
The party vowed to employ every legitimate means to resist plots by anti-democratic forces within the APC to end competitive democracy in Nigeria.
