‘Atiku Has Refused To Join, Peter Obi Also Has Refused To Join’ – ADC Worries

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is facing uncertainty as key political figures, including Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, have not officially joined the party. Despite the coalition's launch on March 20 to challenge President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 election, Atiku, Obi, and others have not formalized their membership.

The delay in their joining has slowed the party's momentum, with unresolved leadership issues and financial pressures hindering its growth. The ADC's struggle is further compounded by the Independent National Electoral Commission's delay in recognizing Senator David Mark as the party's leader and ongoing legal disputes.

However, ADC's National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, remains optimistic, stating that the coalition is on track and that Atiku and Obi are committed to joining the party. Despite the challenges, the ADC has completed the necessary documentation for INEC and is managing its resources efficiently.
