The Bottom Line
Nigeria does not need more political tourism or nomadic movements. It needs commitment, consistency, and character.
Let others chase platforms that bend easily. ADC, the only credible alternative, must remain a platform that stands firmly.
Stay focused. Stay disciplined. Expand.
If you cannot stand the heat in the party , how will you stand the heat in the country , it doesn’t add up to me.

Q: Is ADC the kind of platform anyone can reliably run on in 2027?
A: I think so. It offers the best option to rescue Nigeria and reintroduce good governance in Nigeria.

IBADAN DECLARATION
Communiqué issued at the end of Opposition Political Parties National Summit held on Saturday April 25, 2026 in Ibadan, Oyo State.
Participating Opposition Parties in Nigeria, after an extensive deliberation on the collective threats that we face and the existential challenges facing our country under the stranglehold of the oppressive and anti-democratic All Progressives Congress (APC) and given the need for urgent, collective action to rescue our nation and the destiny of over 200 million compatriots, hereby resolve as follows:
1. That we shall resist all machinations by the APC to foist a one-party State on Nigeria and fight for the survival of multi-party democracy in our country.
2. That despite the onslaughts and manoeuvrings of the ruling party, the APC to impose President Bola Tinubu as the sole Presidential candidate in 2027; we shall field candidates and contest the 2027 Presidential and other elections.
3. That we shall work towards fielding one Presidential Candidate for the 2027 elections, which shall be agreed and supported by all participating opposition parties to rescue our nation and her long suffering masses.
4. That the INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Ojo Amupitan, having shown bias and partisanship in favour of the ruling APC, should not conduct the 2027 general elections as Nigerians across board have lost confidence in him and his capacity to guarantee the required neutrality to deliver free, fair, transparent and credible elections. His continuous stay in office is vexatious and capable of triggering wide spread crisis in our nation.
5. That the National Assembly should immediately review the Electoral Act, 2026 to remove all sections that threaten the sanctity and integrity of the elections and run counter to constitutional provisions.
6. That all leading politicians that are being detained or harassed on bailable offfences be released with immediate effect and allowed to exercise their fundamental rights of participation and inclusivity as Nigerians.
7. That we consider the recent guidelines released by the INEC as obstacles, deliberately engineered to impose conditions and deadlines on the opposition parties. We therefore demand that INEC extends the deadline for primaries till the end of July, 2026.
8. The Summit commends Nigerians for their resilience and readiness to work with Opposition Parties to free our nation from State capture.
9. The National summit of Opposition Political Parties thank the Oyo State Governor Engr. Seyi Makinde and the people of Oyo State for hosting the epochal event.

Chairmen of Participating Opposition Parties.
@atiku ADC GLOBAL NETWORK, Southwest Zone and Oyo State Chapter, welcome you to Ibadan, Oyo State, for this epoch-making OPPOSITION SUMMIT!
ADC, ARISE AND SHINE🤝🤝🤝
BREAKING: PDP National Secretary Samuel Anyanwu and ADC National Publicity Secretary Bolaji Abdullahi are currently at the Supreme Court for the hearing of the cases relating to the leadership crisis rocking the PDP and the ADC.
On the ADC, the Supreme Court is scheduled to hear an appeal filed by ADC National Chairman David Mark, who is involved in a leadership dispute with factional ADC National Chairman Nafiu Bala Gombe.
Mark is asking the court to grant an order staying the execution of the Court of Appeal’s judgment delivered on March 12, which dismissed the ex-Senate President’s appeal in relation to the ongoing leadership dispute in the party.
The Supreme Court will also rule on appeals connected to the PDP’s internal leadership crisis. The cases were filed by the Makinde-backed Turaki faction challenging earlier decisions of the Court of Appeal delivered on March 9.
@lollylarry1@atiku Resorting to smear campaigns, emotional blackmail, bullying, lies, character assassination and unending subtle clamoring for ADC ticket to be delivered to someone in isolation of the required democratic processes are wastes of time and efforts in futility!
The party is supreme!!!
The African Democratic Congress, ADC, scheduled National Elective Convention is now done and dusted in spite of all odds!
A big shout out to the leaders at the helm of ADC affairs!
It is great to have such fearless, bold, focused, determined and resilient leaders in ADC🤝🤝🤝
Three courts have affirmed David Mark as the National Chairman of ADC, and no court issued an injunction against this National Congress we just held.
— Senator @AWTambuwal
@ADCNig This is highly commendable!
ADC, the great party with great leaders at the helm of her affairs!
Thank you to the ADC authentic leadership for raising the bar today by the transparent and orderly manner the National Convention was conducted, which has added more value to ADC🤝🤝
Voting by delegates from across various states has been successfully concluded at the ongoing ADC National Convention 2026, reflecting a smooth, transparent, and orderly democratic process.
