ADC's 2027 Gambit: Enugu Chapter Rallies Behind Coalition's Quest for Change

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is intensifying its efforts to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 general elections. In a strategic meeting held on July 3, 2025, the Enugu chapter of the party welcomed thousands of new members, solidifying its presence in the state.

The ADC has emerged as the chosen platform for a grand coalition of opposition parties aimed at unseating President Bola Tinubu's APC government. This coalition boasts an impressive lineup of notable Nigerian politicians, including Atiku Abubakar, former Vice President and two-term PDP presidential candidate; Peter Obi, former Labour Party presidential candidate; Nasir El-Rufai, former Governor of Kaduna State; and other prominent leaders.

The party's coalition is expected to provide a strong foundation for the ADC, leveraging the experience and influence of its members to drive change. With a national reach and a neutral posture, the ADC is well-positioned to challenge the APC's dominance.

The ADC has appointed former Senate President David Mark as its national chairman and Former Gov. Alagbeshola as national secretary. These appointments are expected to provide strategic direction and strengthen the party's organizational structure. The party's leadership is tasked with mobilizing support, articulating a clear vision, and developing a robust strategy to achieve its objectives.

In her welcome address, Comrade Stella Chukwuma, State Chairman of the ADC, outlined the party's manifesto, aims, and objectives. She assured new members that the ADC is committed to creating a better Nigeria and, by extension, a better Africa. The party's message emphasizes the need for inclusive governance, bold ideas, and purposeful leadership. The ADC is determined to address the country's pressing challenges, including economic stagnation, insecurity, and social inequality.

The ADC's emergence as a coalition platform has significant implications for the 2027 general elections. As the political landscape continues to evolve, one thing is certain: the ADC is gearing up for a fierce battle in 2027. With its flexible internal structure and commitment to democracy, the party is well-equipped to adapt to changing circumstances and capitalize on emerging opportunities.

As the party continues to gain momentum, its leaders are focused on building a strong grassroots presence, engaging with voters, and articulating a compelling vision for Nigeria's future. The ADC's success will depend on its ability to mobilize support, build alliances, and present a credible alternative to the APC's governance model.

The people of Enugu State and Nigeria at large are eagerly watching the developments in the political space, and the ADC's efforts are expected to play a significant role in shaping the country's future. With its commitment to democracy and good governance, the ADC is poised to make a lasting impact on Nigeria's political landscape.
