ADC Leadership Crisis Divides Adamawa State Amidst Prominent Political Backing

A leadership tussle has divided the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Adamawa state, with two factions led by Sadiq Dasin and Saidu Komsiri claiming chairmanship. Dasin's group, backed by notable figures like former Governor Bindow Jibrilla and ex-Senator Abdul Aziz Nyako, is recognized as the authentic leadership.

On the other hand, Komsiri's faction, supported by Aisha Binani, disputes this and pledges unity. The rift deepens as key political figures like Atiku Abubakar align with Dasin, while concerns arise about party cohesion for the upcoming 2027 elections.
