ADC Instructs Newly Elected Officials to Stay Off Office
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) issued a statement on Friday, cautioning newly elected officials to stay off office until their formal inauguration, which is scheduled for May 12, 2026. The party emphasized that the current leadership remains valid until the transition process is completed.
Abdullahi, a representative of the party, highlighted the importance of this directive to prevent confusion and ensure a smooth transition of leadership. The ADC also warned incoming officials, particularly at the state level, against actions that could create tension or lead to the establishment of parallel structures.
The statement reaffirmed the party's commitment to discipline and adherence to its internal rules, noting that the inauguration of the new executive is set for a later date, which will be officially announced.
