ADC PRESS RELEASE

INEC aiding, abetting Tinubu’s agenda to disenfranchise ADC, other opposition parties

On 11 July 2026, Nafiu Bala Gombe who parades himself as National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) issued a statement that he has succeeded in uploading the names of his candidates on the portal of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The uploading of the names of candidates on INEC portal is part of the process of the 2027 General Elections made possible by the granting of access codes to political parties in line with the umpire's guidelines.

Meanwhile, INEC has been mum, and has not denied or confirmed this obvious contradiction to the law and its own guidelines.

By granting access code to Bala Gombe, a pretender, laying claims to the chairmanship of the ADC, though the law is not on his side and INEC has since validated the chairmanship of the Sen. David Mark-led exco, the electoral umpire is once again manifesting its partisanship. This was the same thing that the Prof Joash Amupitan-led INEC did when it illegally removed the names of the duly recognised ADC exco following the judicial rascality of Justice Lifu in ignoring a superior ruling of an appelate court.

The so-called "successful" uploading of "candidates" by Nafiu Bala Gombe is neither grounded in law or supported by INEC's own guidelines. Nafiu Bala Gombe is not recognised as ADC Chairman. Mark is duly recognised. Can there be two recognised Chairmen of a political party? Possibly only in an INEC led by Amupitan. Can INEC grant two access codes to a political party? Certainly not.

What INEC has done is a recipe for crisis and confirms that Prof Joash Amupitan was appointed to enable the weakening of the opposition parties by creating crisis even where none exists.

We wish to remind Prof Joash Amupitan's INEC that Section 222 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended) provides that candidates of a political party must emerge through recognized party primaries supervised by INEC. Section 84 of the Electoral Act, 2022 (as amended) stipulates that political parties must conduct primaries and submit only one validly nominated candidate per elective office to INEC. Nafiu Bala Gombe and his criminal gang did not conduct any primaries.

The INEC granting of access code to Nafiu Bala Gombe is unconstitutional and unlawful. The only submitted candidates known to the law are those of David Mark. Any parallel submission such as Nafiu Bala Gombe's is null and void.

Prof Joash Amupitan should quit formenting crisis in the ADC and the other opposition parties and by so doing helping President Bola Tinubu’s agenda of total state capture.

For Amupitans sake, I hope what the ADC is alleging is mere allegations.
He should not allow himself to be cheaply used.

Even with a whopping 35 state governors and an FCT minister they are still seeing Peter Obi in their dreams and hallucinations 😏

I'm still searching for the data b0i that will bet N1m with me against their tilumbu being OTP (flung Out The Door) from also rock come may 2027 😎

If they saved up their 30k since 2023 maybe by this December I'd get a challenger 🤔

A confirmed batist? He is not being used, he has been bought already. He is doing his part.

Has anyone ever noticed that APC data boys have never campaigned to people with regards getting their PVC's?

They don't even mention PVC's in any of their posts.

The opposition is trying to unite after messing up the coalition .

If you venture and make a costly mistake to say "Vote Wisely" in front of any one of them it will be as if you have stolen meat from his plate of rice and poured hot water in front of his trousers 🥺

And VOTE WISELY .

They're jagaban Army structure bandits terrorist.

But why is INEC Nigeria bent on destroying other strong opposition parties, even when they knows Bola Tinubu is still going to win the election ??

This is just my own question

That's because every call for credibility and accountability is a direct attack on their principal and an assault on their ideals. They will fight anything that wants to take that 2k from their hands.😕

Failures must blame others for their self inflicted woes

Was is FG that promised Bala a position which was eventually stripped from him

Modified: Whenever I see some people blaming FG about the issue the opposition are having in their party, it only indicate how many noobs in politics we have in Nigeria.

You see all those small political party which some of their members/excos refused to move to big party, they are waiting for big politicians to come to the party and take advantage of them. Adeleke in Accord, can't you all see what's happening there?

Blaming Fg about the opposition disarray is mischievous

End SARS will look like child's play compared to what's brewing, the risk this administration is taking only suggests one thing...they are enemies of Nigeria and it's possible Tilumbu is not a Nigerian. No one knows his parents, siblings, school mates or even childhood friends.

They are out in full force to destroy Nigeria.

Hmmm. This is a very BOLD claim sha

Or maybe it's just propaganda they are spreading. Maybe they know that he will lose woefully if they don't play dirty.

Politicians are all the same. Forget party affiliates. They are all the same mistake on earth. There's none better.

Trouble Dey sleep, yanga go wake am.

This problems you guys want to cause, if it will affect only you politicians, it would have been better.

You’re pushing your lucks and pushing the already volatile nation to the brim.

They are banking on the Lagos master planner being the only real candidate on the ballot, after using APC Twitter sympathiser Amupitan's INEC and Wike's courts to destroy credible opposition candidates and parties.

The master strategist of Nigerian politics believes he can ruin Nigeria forever, as he is doing in Lagos since 1999. After securing reelection next year, he will move on to his 3rd term agenda for life president. The agenda that Obasanjo failed to achieve in 2007 because Atiku led other democracy heroes to kill the bill in the NASS despite Ghana must go bags of bribe.

Wike Boasts Of Helping APC Use Judiciary To Kill Osun LG Funds Case, Warns Party Leaders Against Ingratitude

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has openly boasted that he assisted certain elements within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in deploying the judiciary to frustrate the Osun State local government allocation lawsuit.

In a video now circulating widely on social media and obtained by SaharaReporters, Wike made the claim while addressing a crowd in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

The former Rivers governor accused the APC National Secretary, Senator Ajibola Basiru, of benefitting from judicial actions against the Osun State Government without knowing those who did the work behind the scenes.

The suit in question led to the withholding of local government funds in Osun State, a development widely seen as targeting the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke as opposition in the state.

Wike, who spoke angrily, suggested that the court action supporting the APC’s position against the Osun government did not happen by chance, boasting that powerful political forces worked quietly to ensure the outcome.

“Don’t take our support for Mr President for granted,” Wike warned, in an apparent message to APC leaders defending Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara. “You have to be careful about the statements you make. You have to be very careful.”

He accused Basiru of political ingratitude, claiming the APC was enjoying in Osun State without understanding who engineered their advantage.

“Today, you are enjoying in Osun. You don’t know those who did the work,” Wike said. “You are opening your mouth to talk about Rivers State.”

It's because they already know they can never win any presidential election in nigeria without rigging.

Maybe they have discovered that it will be difficult to rig the 2027 presidential election if obi and atiku is allowed to be on the ballot.

Was it FG that made promise to Bala bit couldn't fulfil it?

Thiefnūbu is INEC chairman himself. He's just using the current guy as a proxy

Everyone with a functioning brain knows this for a fact. The fraud cannot survive a free,fair and credible election.

I have no idea what you are saying.

Maybe that's why they are fighting to subdue or destroy them.

I think you're correct.

lightwind:

Why then are you blaming the FG when you don't know the genesis of the crisis in ADC

Our duty as citizens is to make sure that 2027 election by God's grace is not rigged ,if not we will wake up in the middle of night to realised that the chief creator of massive poverty won... this is the danger of giving power to crooks who never made legit money through deligence ,hardwork ,intregrity and purpose ...such can never create wealth for the nation .
because u cant create national prosperity if your own wealth is through corruption ...u can only manufacture propagange to fed the gulible ones...

I don't have to go ahead to destroy other parties or put confusions in their mists when i know 100% that i am going to win massively or successfully i will just leave them alone,let them be wasting their money on campaigns and elections.

There's no need of me disturbing them.
