Atiku Abubakar Resolves ADC Faction Dispute in Jigawa

Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), intervened in a dispute between two rival factions of the party in Jigawa State. He directed the factions to withdraw their court cases against each other regarding the party’s governorship ticket.

This intervention followed a reconciliation meeting led by Atiku, ADC National Chairman Senator David Mark, and other senior leaders. The factions, led by Senator Sabo Muhammad Nakudu and Hon. Bashir Adamu Jimbo, agreed to recognize the candidate lists submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and signed an agreement to end their legal battles.

The dispute involved challenges over the eligibility of candidates and the choice of running mates. Atiku emphasized the importance of unity within the party, stating that internal contests are part of democracy but must be reconciled for the greater good.

His intervention aims to foster a fresh reconciliation process within the Jigawa chapter as the ADC prepares for the 2027 elections.
