The African Democratic Congress has urged Presidential aspirants, former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, and economist, Mohammed Hayatu-Deen, to seek redress for any grievances through established party structures and statutory electoral mechanisms rather than public confrontation.
ADC National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, also said there is no evidence to support claims that the party’s presidential primary election was rigged in favour of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
Abdullahi made the clarification during an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today, on Tuesday stating that with results still being collated, there is currently no basis to confirm or dismiss the allegations raised by some aspirants.
The ADC held a nationwide direct primary on Monday to select its presidential candidate for the 2027 general election.
Although the party is yet to officially announce the final results from all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, early figures indicate Atiku is leading, with former Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi in second place, while Abubakar Atiku Hayatu-Deen is in third position.
