Barring any last-minute change, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar will on Monday formally register with the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and pick up his membership card.
Top aides told Daily Trust that final arrangements have been concluded for Atiku to register at Jada Ward 1 in Jada Local Government Area of Adamawa State.
The former VP also hinted at the development during a meeting held earlier today with the Adamawa State ADC leadership in Yola.
“In Nigeria as a whole, there is a new political movement, is it not so? Today, the new movement has taken us to where? To the ADC. So, the people of Adamawa and Nigeria, our new party is ADC and our new leaders in Adamawa are here seated,” he said.
“After that, on Monday, I will be officially in the ADC. Before now, I was not in; you were there before me. Will you accept me?” he asked, to which the crowd responded with a resounding “Yes”.
He added: “May God allow us to witness Monday. It is tomorrow; we are hopeful to meet tomorrow.”
Until now, there had been doubts over the level of commitment of both Atiku and the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, to the ADC after the opposition coalition they jointly lead adopted the party in July as its platform for the 2027 presidential election.
Their absence at the unveiling of the ADC’s new national secretariat last week had further fuelled concerns over whether both leaders remained fully aligned with the coalition’s decision.
