The Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday, 5 November nullified the David Mark-led leadership of the African Democratic Congress and invalidated all decisions taken under it, including the process that produced former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar as its 2027 presidential candidate.
Justice Peter Lifu also voided Rauf Aregbesola’s emergence as national secretary. The suit was filed by a former deputy national chairman of the party. The ADC said it would appeal the judgment, which throws its preparations for the 2027 election into uncertainty.
