The by-elections in Zamfara (Kaura Namoda South Constituency) were declared inconclusive.
Specific winner names for some constituencies (e.g., Kaduna and Kano’s Ghari Tsanyawa) were not detailed in the sources but were attributed to the APC.
Allegations of voter intimidation, vote buying, and electoral malpractice were reported in some states, notably Ogun and Kano, but INEC declared winners based on collated results.
– ADC Scorecard Empty
The ADC was adopted by members of opposition parties vowing to unseat the APC in the 2027 elections. The party tested its popularity in the by-elections, which were keenly contested by 637 candidates from 17 parties jostling for 68 seats.
The by-election marked the first election the party contested in since the coalition of opposition leaders adopted the ADC as a platform to contest the 2027 polls.
Prior to the elections, the interim National Chairman of the party, David Mark, had appealed to Nigerians to support the party’s candidates and give them the chance to prove themselves in the by-elections.
