The African Democratic Congress (ADC) says serving governors are unable to join the party due to ongoing political pressures.

The Interim National Publicity Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Bolaji Abdullahi, has attributed the reluctance of sitting governors to join the party to fear and political intimidation.

Speaking at the third expanded meeting of the national political consultative group (north) in Abuja on Saturday, Abdullahi said the situation reflects “a conspiracy against the Nigerian people.”

“We know that no serving governor will want to come to us now because of the kind of intimidation that they are facing,” he stated. “Some of them who cannot jump to their party (APC) are saying we are endorsing their presidential candidate (Tinubu). No problem.”

Abdullahi emphasized that the ADC is not built around any single ambition, but instead represents a movement for Nigerians seeking a new political direction.

“The ADC is not going to be hijacked. Our party does not coalesce around any individual,” he said. “We don’t have any predetermined agenda or favourite candidate. Our focus is to build a party strong enough to deliver on the mission we’ve set for ourselves.”

He reiterated that the ADC is open to all Nigerians who are disillusioned with the country’s current trajectory and want a genuine alternative.
