The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) wastes no time, promptly restoring the leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) on its official portal. This decisive move follows a Supreme Court ruling that dismantles a contentious Court of Appeal directive, significantly strengthening the faction loyal to Senator David Mark as the party navigates its internal power struggle ahead of 2027.

The Supreme Court has cleared a major legal hurdle for the David Mark-led faction of the African Democratic Congress, nullifying an Appeal Court order for parties to maintain status quo. This decision pushes the fierce leadership battle back to the Federal High Court, where the substantive challenge against Mark’s authority now proceeds.

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.

African Democratic Congress chieftain Ladan Salihu declares the ruling All Progressives Congress will fail the integrity and credibility test in the 2027 general elections. He asserts President Bola Tinubu's government faces overwhelming public anger and frustration. Salihu also ramps up calls for INEC Chairman Prof. Joash Amupitan's resignation, citing alleged bias.

A People’s Democratic Party (PDP) faction, led by Kabiru Tanimu Turaki (SAN), engages the African Democratic Congress (ADC), sparking intense speculation. This move is not a full-blown alliance but a calculated exploration, a strategic dance to gain leverage ahead of the 2027 general elections. Political observers see it as a powerful signal in Nigeria's fluid political landscape.
