ADC Chieftain Predicts APC's 2027 Electoral Downfall, Demands INEC Chairman's Exit
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) fires a warning shot at the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), predicting electoral failure in 2027. A key chieftain insists public anger and frustration will define the polls, while simultaneously calling for the immediate removal of the INEC Chairman over alleged bias.
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) delivers a stark warning to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC): the 2027 general elections will expose an integrity and credibility deficit. Ladan Salihu, a prominent ADC chieftain, asserts that President Bola Tinubu’s government faces the full force of Nigerian anger and frustration at the polls, ultimately failing the electoral tests ahead.
Salihu, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, maintains that the current administration cannot escape the palpable discontent of the populace. He predicts that when the nation heads to the polls in 2027, the APC will simply not measure up against the collective frustration of Nigerians, indicating a clear path to electoral failure for the ruling party.
Amupitan Must Go: ADC's Call for INEC Leadership Change
Beyond the APC’s anticipated electoral woes, Salihu also renews a pointed demand for the resignation or outright removal of Professor Joash Amupitan, the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). He accuses Amupitan of significant bias, compromising the electoral body’s neutrality.
The ADC chieftain makes no secret of his strong stance, declaring Professor Joash Amupitan as 'persona non grata' in public service. Salihu argues that the INEC Chairman has demonstrably failed both integrity and competency tests, asserting that Amupitan cannot present himself as the impartial, credible umpire required to deliver an election that Nigerians, a nation of over 200 million, can truly celebrate.
Despite these strong allegations from the ADC, the Independent National Electoral Commission has consistently denied any claims of bias. INEC maintains its position, insisting on the unwavering neutrality of its Chairman, Professor Joash Amupitan, in the lead-up to the crucial 2027 general elections.
