Atiku Abubakar and Nasir El-Rufai Join ADC, Peter Obi's Delay Raises Questions
Atiku Abubakar and Nasir El-Rufai have formally defected to the African Democratic Congress (ADC) from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and All Progressives Congress (APC) respectively. Peter Obi, a potential presidential candidate, is yet to officially join ADC, causing uncertainty.
The ADC has seen a coalition of notable politicians in recent months, including Julius Abur's faction. Datti Baba Ahmed, Obi's running mate, faced challenges attending a meeting due to factional disputes within the party.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is monitoring the situation closely.
