Aishatu Binani Defects to NDC from ADC in Adamawa

Aishatu Binani has announced her defection from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) on Friday, signaling a major political realignment in Adamawa State. This move follows her earlier departure from the All Progressives Congress (APC) in July 2025 due to prolonged rifts within the APC leadership in Adamawa State.

The ADC, which Binani joined after leaving the APC, has reportedly faced internal disagreements leading to the resignation of several loyalists aligned with her. The ADC's challenges were exacerbated by a crisis surrounding its congress and leadership structure, which has been described as controversial.

Binani's shift to the NDC is expected to reshape political alliances in Adamawa as stakeholders position themselves for upcoming political activities.
