BREAKING ADC is taking its fight for democracy global. As part of our efforts to strengthen international engagement, we are establishing a Special Representatives Network across key global capitals to engage foreign governments, amplify credible information about Nigeria’s political environment, and counter one-sided government narratives. This comes amid growing attacks on our members, attempts to undermine our leadership, and efforts to restrict political participation ahead of the 2027 General Elections. Our representatives will engage foreign governments, international media, democracy institutions, and the Nigerian diaspora, providing regular briefings on political developments, human rights concerns, and electoral integrity. We are also launching a National Documentation Initiative to systematically track and report incidents affecting political participation across Nigeria. From Washington DC to London, Brussels to Addis Ababa, ADC is building a global platform for accountability. Nigeria’s democracy must be seen, heard, and defended everywhere.

@BashirAhmaad Since you are now a strong believer of rule of law take those killers to court I mean the ones they are calling "our brothers"

Good, Serah! Since you are confident she is alive, please push her to pursue legal action. I believe the court will also be expecting her to explain why she made a statement asking when a sitting President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria would die. You should also be there to assist her in addressing the motive behind her statement responsibly.

@BashirAhmaad Take the bandit to court

@BashirAhmaad Go to court and Sue those terrorist killing people in northern Nigeria

The electoral body appears to no longer function solely as an impartial umpire, but rather as an institution that restricts opposition voices. We respectfuly urge the Federal High Court to promptly addres and reverse this concerning precedent @inecnigeria @ADCVanguard_ @ADCNig

They weaponised an ambiguous court order to delist the David Mark-led ADC faction, freeze the entire party, and paralyse it right before 2027. This wasn’t a gray area. This was deliberate sabotage by a p@rti$an umpire doing the ruling party’s dir√¥ work. @inecnigeria

@BashirAhmaad @OfficialDSSNG But you don't tag secret police to look out for criminals killing people in North Central? I can't wait to graduate and leave this country

Hello @Dir_Martinsz It appears you are in contact with the family of an individual who openly wished death upon a sitting President. This is not a trivial matter, it is a serious security concern. I believe the Department of State Services @OfficialDSSNG should reach out to you to assist in identifying and locating the individual, since you claim she is alive, so she can explain her irresponsible statement and intention, particularly the questioning when the President is going to die. If you are unaware, such actions are grave and can be interpreted as threats. For context, someone from Kaduna, Abubakar Gazza has reportedly been between the DSS custody and prison for over 40 days over a similar incident. In his case, his statement was not even directed at a Nigerian President, but at Netanyahu of Israel. This is a serious issue that should not be taken lightly.

@jrnaib2 @SimFubaraKSC I swear to God, sir I don't know why you joined APC But it's not too late I believe it is for your own survival Please join NDC Or you wait for ADC to stabilize

Repost Aggressively!

@inecnigeria INEC technically followed the court order in intention, but whether it strictly did the right thing legally is debatable and depends on interpretation of “status quo.” Many legal experts would say it’s a gray area. Summary I don't trust @inecnigeria

Accordingly, in order to protect the integrity of the proceedings and the eventual determination of the substantive suit pending before the Federal High Court in Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1819/2025, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AS FOLLOWS: That Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1819/2025, be and is hereby granted accelerated hearing in view of the Electoral Time Table released by the 4th Respondent.

Cost of N2,000,000.00 (Two Million Naira) is awarded in favour of the 1st respondent.” INEC’S OBSERVATIONS The Commission, after a careful consideration of the Judgment of the Court of Appeal in Appeal No. CA/ABJ/145/2026 and the processes filed by the parties in Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1819/2025 pending before the Federal High Court in Abuja wishes to observe as follows: That the National Working Committee (NWC) of the Party (ADC) came into being following the National Executive Council Meeting of 29th July, 2025 after all the Mr. Ralph Okey Nwosu Exco Members resigned and ratified the appointment of the present members of the National Working Committee (NWC) led by Senator David Mark. That Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe, who was the Vice-National Chairman, denied he ever resigned from the party and claimed that following the resignation of the Chairman of the party, Mr. Ralph Okey Nwosu, he Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe, automatically ought to take over as the Chairman of the Party, being the only Vice-National Chairman left behind in accordance with the constitution of the Party. That Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe, through an Originating Summons, instituted Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1819/2025 before the Federal High Court in Abuja on 2nd September, 2025 for an order of injunction restraining Senator David Mark's group (2nd & 3rd Defendants) from parading themselves, dealing or continuing to deal with INEC as National Chairman and Secretary of the 1st Defendant (ADC), an order restraining INEC from recognising, dealing with or continuing to deal with the 2nd and 3rd Defendants as the National Chairman and Secretary of the 1st Defendant (ADC), an order directing INEC to recognise the Plaintiff (Hon.

The motion ex parte was heard on 4th September, 2025 and the trial Judge, Justice Emeka Nwite, directed that the Respondents, including INEC, be put on Notice to show cause why the Motion Ex Parte should not be granted. The 2nd Defendant (Senator David Mark) decided to appeal against the order of Nwite, J. on 18th December, 2025 to the Court of Appeal, Abuja, challenging the jurisdiction of the trial court. On 12th March, 2026, the Court of Appeal in Abuja ( 6 months after the appeal was filed) dismissed the appeal of the 2nd Defendant and, in addition, made the above-quoted presevatory orders. The Plaintiff also filed another Motion Ex Parte and Motion on Notice on 15th September, 2025 before the trial court seeking to prevent the 1st Defendant (ADC) from holding, convening or summoning any Convention, Congress, Conference or meeting and to stop the 4th Defendant (INEC) from attending, monitoring, observing, or recognising any activities organised by the 1st Defendant pending the determination of the suit. That after the Judgment of the Court of Appeal, the Commission received letters from the solicitors to Senator David Mark's group and Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe, making claims and counter-claims to the leadership of the party and making several demands on INEC

PRESS RELEASE INEC’S POSITION ON THE COURT OF APPEAL’S DECISION IN APPEAL NO. CA/ABJ/145/2026: SENATOR DAVID MARK V HON. NAFIU BALA GOMBE & ORS The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has received: A letter from the law firm of Suleiman Usman SAN & Co. dated 16th March, 2026, titled: “RE: NOTICE OF PENDING PROCEEDINGS BEFORE THE FEDERAL HIGH COURT AND CAUTION AGAINST ANY PURPORTED RECOGNITION OF MR NAFIU BALA GOMBE AS ACTING NATIONAL CHAIRMAN OF THE AFRICAN DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS (ADC)” written on behalf of concerned stakeholders within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) A letter from the law firm of Summit Law Chambers also dated 16th March 2026 titled: “DEMAND FOR ENFORCEMENT OF THE ORDERS MADE BY THE COURT OF APPEAL, ABUJA DIVISION IN APPEAL NO: CA/ABJ/145/2026: SENATOR DAVID MARK V HON. NAFIU BALA GOMBE & 4 ORS” written on behalf of Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe. While the letter from Suleiman Usman SAN & Co urged the Commission not to recognise Mr Nafiu Bala Gombe as acting National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) on account of the pending Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1819/2025: Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe v. ADC & 4 Ors. before the Federal High Court, Abuja, where the question of the leadership of the Party (ADC) is presently being contested, the letter from Summit Law Chambers, on the other hand, attached the certified True Copy of the Judgment of the Court of Appeal in Suit No. CA/ABJ/145/2026: Senator David Mark v Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe & Ors and requested the Commission to enforce the judgement of the Court of Appeal, including: Ceasing recognition of Senator David Mark and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola as National Chairman and National Secretary respectively of ADC; Removing their names from the Commission’s portal; and Refraining from dealing with or recognising any actions taken by them in respect of the party in line with the preservation orders made by the Court of Appeal. Subsequently, by another letter on the same subject matter dated 27th March, 2026, Summit Law Chambers alleged that the Commission had acted in disobedience of the Court of Appeal’s Orders by: i. Inviting Senator David Mark’s group to a political parties’ meeting held on Tuesday, 24th March, 2026; and ii. Monitoring a purported National Executive Committee meeting of that group. The solicitors (Summit Law Chambers) further drew the attention of the Commission to the Motion Ex-Parte and Motion on Notice filed by their client on 15th December, 2025, seeking to prevent the 1st Defendant (ADC) from holding any convention, congress, conference, or meeting and to stop INEC from attending, monitoring, observing or recognising any activities of the ADC. They accordingly requested INEC to invalidate the NEC meeting held by Senator David Mark's group on 25th March, 2026, remove the name of Senator David Mark's group from the INEC portal, stop recognising or acknowledging correspondence from them until the determination of the pending suit before the Federal High Court, Abuja and allow Hon. Nafiu Bala Gombe to take over the affairs of ADC pending the determination of the case, and that INEC should respect the orders of the Court of Appeal in Appeal No. CA/ABJ/145/2026. ORDERS OF THE COURT OF APPEAL In its judgement delivered on 12th March, 2026, the Court of Appeal dismissed the interlocutory appeal by Senator David Mark and made amongst others, the following Orders: “Finally, it is necessary to make preservatory orders to ensure that the subject matter of the dispute pending before the trial court is not prejudiced as Courts have inherent powers to control and regulate proceedings to ensure justice...

I was discussing politics with some people today about the ADC issue. One guy said that when the INEC Chairman was appointed, people claimed he dislikes Muslims. I replied, Wow, if that’s true, APC is in serious trouble because it’s a Muslim-Muslim ticket. Then everyone shouted and ran off laughing 😂😂. Did I say something wrong?

@NigeriaStories @inecnigeria I don't believe in this news All we need is for that very SAN TO STEP DOWN

JUST IN: U.S-based policy firm, Von Batten-Montague York L.C, has announced plans to formally engage members of Congress and the Trump administration over the decision by the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) to discontinue recognition of the ADC leadership.

@TheSerahIbrahim I can recommend a good lawyer from port Harcourt

She recently got married and is busy with her private life, not having time for Twitter for now. You’re such a low life for this tweet and have caused panic to her family. You should be sued, fake news merchant.

I don't trust @inecnigeria

@Karigwe Not particularly

It is not a hidden fact that the APC and Tinubu do not want Peter Obi on the ballot. But I have to ask the tough question every well-meaning Nigerian is asking in their head but refusing to say out loud. Does the ADC coalition truly want Peter Obi on the ballot?

@HAHayatu Amen

Tinubu can be defeated and nothing will happen.
