2027: Zoning not our priority – ADC

ADC

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has stated that it is not prioritising zoning ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

The disclosure was made by ADC Interim National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, who added that the party is focused on building a strong, grassroots-based political structure nationwide.

According to Abdullahi, ADC’s approach to the 2027 election would be based on merit and national interest over traditional zoning.

“As for 2027, let me be clear: we are building the party to be a serious contender, not just a participant. But we are not fixated on the presidency as though it were the only prize worth winning.

“That kind of thinking is part of what has led to the political dysfunction we see today.

“We are focused on building capacity across all levels so that we can contest and win governorships, Senate seats, House of Reps seats, and positions in state assemblies.

“Yes, the question of the presidential ticket will come, but first, we are laying the foundation.

“A party cannot be something built on nothing. We must first build the structure, and when we get to the bridge, we will cross it. Our emphasis now is on readiness, organisation, and credibility.

“The ADC is here to give Nigerians a real alternative; not just a new name, but a new vision,” he said.
