ADC South-West Leadership Backs Atiku Amid Unity Claims
The leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in the South-West has publicly reaffirmed its unity and support for the party’s presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, ahead of the 2027 general elections. A press statement signed by Akin Omole, the ADC South-West National Vice Chairman, and the six state chairmen of the party in the region dismissed rumors of internal disagreements.
They emphasized their commitment to working with Atiku, the National Working Committee, National Chairman Senator David Mark, and National Secretary Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola to achieve a historic victory in 2027. The leaders clarified that a meeting held in Ibadan on September 4, 2026, was a strategic engagement to strengthen party structures and not a response to any crisis.
They also denied claims of a virtual meeting with Atiku on September 5, 2026, aimed at resolving an alleged internal crisis, attributing such reports to political opponents attempting to create discord within the party.
