Nigerian ADC Faces Challenges as Atiku's Son Decamps to APC

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is struggling to gain traction in Nigerian politics, with key figures like Abba Abubakar, son of Atiku Abubakar, defecting to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). Atiku's other son, Umar Abubakar, remains in the People's Democratic Party (PDP).

The ADC's lack of organizational structure and clear campaign strategy has hindered its progress. The party's failure to inspire confidence as a viable alternative to the APC and PDP has led to doubts about its future.

The defections of prominent politicians like Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang to the APC further highlight the challenges facing the ADC. The party's internal divisions and perceived association with Atiku's leadership style have also contributed to its struggles.
