Executive Summary
A year ago, prominent politicians, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, former Senate President David Mark, and former Governors Peter Obi, Rauf Aregbesola, Rabiu Kwankwaso, and Aminu Tambuwal, joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC) seeking a new platform. However, this move has proven to be a disappointing misadventure, as internal disputes have plagued the party. Nafiu Gombe, claiming to be the legitimate chairman, contested the takeover by the David Mark faction, leading to legal battles and INEC's withholding of recognition. Despite the presence of influential figures, the ADC is facing challenges that threaten its stability and the political aspirations of its members. The future of these political heavyweights within the ADC remains uncertain as they grapple with internal conflicts and the ticking clock for party registration.
