Former Vice President Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has addressed speculation about possibly leaving the African Democratic Congress (ADC) amid the ongoing leadership crisis, insisting he remains committed to the party.
In an interview with BBC Pidgin, Atiku said the party believes the courts will recognise David Mark’s leadership.
“We believe the trial court will dispense the case as soon as possible, even before the congress. Observers are not lawyers, but we are confident the court will uphold David Mark’s leadership,” he said.
Asked about joining other political parties because of the crisis, Atiku stressed that ADC has established structures and significant investments, which make defection unnecessary.
“Some of the parties don’t have structures. ADC is a coalition of the movement we started about one and a half years ago, so a lot of appropriation has gone into it. We are focused on concluding the judicial process and continuing our activities,” he stated.
On the possibility of not securing the ADC presidential ticket, Atiku described the party as a coalition of leaders, including strong contenders like Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso, saying: “We have agreed… we are all leaders.”
The former vice president’s comments come as ADC navigates internal disputes ahead of the 2027 general elections, with the outcome of ongoing judicial proceedings likely to shape the party’s presidential contest
