Leaders of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) faction under Kabiru Tanimu Turaki are currently in a closed-door meeting in Abuja.
Among those present at the meeting are Senator David Mark, National Chairman of the ADC, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, former Kano Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Presidential candidate of Labour Party, (LP) in the last election, Peter Obi.
Others are former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal, Former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi and Senator Aminu Tambuwal among others.
On the side of the PDP, are Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, factional National Chairman Turaki, Professor Jerry Gana, former Senate President Adolphus Wabara, former Niger State Governor, Babangida Aliyu, and other members of the National Working Committee, of the PDP.
The agenda of the meeting is yet to be known as at the time of filling this report, but sources suggested that it maybe connected to the action of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in recognizing Nyesom Wike-backed PDP and crisis brewing in ADC.
GISTSMATE MEDIA earlier reported that ADC called for the immediate resignation or removal of the INEC Chairman, Professor Joseph Amupitan, SAN, accusing him of partisanship, constitutional breaches, and actions it says threaten Nigeria’s multi-party democracy.
The demand was made on Wednesday at INEC headquarters in Abuja, where party leaders and supporters gathered in protest.
What began as an internal leadership dispute within the ADC last September has now burst into a wider political confrontation, raising fresh allegations about the neutrality of the Electoral Commission as the country looks ahead to the 2027 elections.
The position was conveyed by Senator David Mark, National Chairman of the ADC, and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, National Secretary, who accused the INEC chairman of stepping beyond his constitutional role and aligning with factional interests within the party. READ MORE
