ADC Considers Ralph Nwosu's Return Ahead of Convention

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is evaluating the possibility of Ralph Nwosu returning as interim national chairman following setbacks experienced within the party over the last 72 hours. This development comes against a backdrop of ongoing leadership disputes and pressures related to the party's structure, particularly after actions taken by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Senator David Mark is anticipated to step aside to facilitate Nwosu's leadership process as the ADC prepares for its national convention. The party aims to stabilize its leadership and move forward with the convention process, which is crucial ahead of the 2027 elections.

The situation has already triggered reactions within the political landscape, as the ADC has accused INEC of overstepping its constitutional mandate. Bolaji Abdullahi, the party's national public secretary, stated that there is no court order preventing the scheduled convention, emphasizing the need for internal resolution.
