ADC Moves Presidential Campaign Flag-Off to November 4

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has rescheduled its presidential campaign flag-off in Sokoto State to November 4, 2026, moving it from the original date of October 31. This postponement is attributed to allegations that the Sokoto State Government instructed hotels in the state capital not to accommodate delegates attending the event.

The ADC claimed that some delegates who had already checked into hotels were asked to vacate their rooms following this alleged directive. In a statement from the ADC Presidential Campaign Council in Sokoto State, the party indicated that the decision to shift the rally was based on planning and coordination issues, although it did not directly link the postponement to the accommodation allegations.

The council expressed regret for any inconvenience caused by the date change and thanked party leaders, stakeholders, supporters, and the public for their understanding and continued support. The ADC assured that preparations were underway to welcome political leaders and guests at the rescheduled event.
