David Mark: Obi's Exit Will Motivate ADC for 2027 Elections

David Mark, the Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), addressed members at the party's national secretariat in Abuja on Wednesday, discussing the implications of Peter Obi's exit from the Labour Party. Mark expressed that Obi's departure, along with that of former Kano State Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, would spur ADC members to work harder in preparation for the 2027 general elections.

He reaffirmed the party's determination to present credible candidates capable of winning elections and stressed the importance of unity within the ADC to resist attempts at creating divisive factions. Mark expressed confidence that Nigerians are increasingly aligning with the ADC and urged members to close ranks to avoid issues of factionalism.

He acknowledged the impact of the recent high-profile defections on the political landscape, emphasizing that the ADC remains focused on building a strong political platform to address Nigeria's challenges.
