ADC Declares Chris Uba as Presidential Flag Bearer

The African Democratic Congress (ADC), led by National Chairman Nafiu Bala Gomb, has officially declared Professor Chris Uba as its presidential flag bearer for the 2027 general elections. This announcement comes in response to claims that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar was a candidate for the party, which the ADC categorically denies.

The party asserts that it has completed its internal nomination process and emphasizes its commitment to contesting elections on its own merit. The ADC disowns a faction led by David Mark, describing it as lacking legitimate authority and not recognized by the party.

The ADC warns Atiku Abubakar to cease any actions that misrepresent the party's leadership and affirms its readiness to participate in the upcoming elections with credible candidates across various positions. The party also reassures the public of its adherence to electoral laws and its intent to maintain its autonomy without forming alliances or coalitions.
