@BolajiADC It’s less than 4 weeks till the names of candidates are submitted to INEC and this “coalition” can’t state its stance on zoning of its presidential ticket. One would think the PDP’s misfortune should’ve taught sufficient lessons about how not to run a party going into elections

PRESS STATEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ADC RELEASES UPDATED PRIMARY ELECTION SCHEDULE AND REVISED NOMINATION FEES — Announces New Dates and Adjusted Fees Following Stakeholder Consultations The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has released an updated schedule of activities for its 2026 primary elections, alongside revised costs for nomination forms, following extensive consultations with party leaders, aspirants, and stakeholders across the country. Under the updated timetable, the purchase and submission of completed forms will run from May 6 to May 13, 2026, with May 13 set as the final deadline for submission. Screening of aspirants is scheduled for May 14 and May 15, 2026, with the publication of screening results on May 17, 2026. Appeals will be heard between May 18 and May 19, 2026, while the final list of cleared aspirants will be published on May 20, 2026. Primary elections for State Houses of Assembly, the House of Representatives, and the Senate will be held on May 21, 2026, followed by governorship primaries on May 22, 2026. The presidential primary election is scheduled for May 23, 2026. This will be followed by the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on May 25, 2026, and the Special National Convention on May 26, 2026. Additionally, following the review, the cost of nomination forms has been set at N90,000,000 for the presidential ticket, N30,000,000 for governorship, N10,000,000 for Senate, N5,000,000 for the House of Representatives, and N2,000,000 for State Houses of Assembly. The party retains its concessionary framework, providing a 50 percent discount for youth aspirants between the ages of 18 and 35, and a 25 percent discount for women and persons living with disabilities. These adjustments reflect the outcome of broad-based consultations aimed at strengthening internal democracy, improving access, and ensuring that the ADC continues to provide a credible and inclusive platform for political participation.

It’s amazing how Balablu’s nephews are in the public domain but somehow I’ve not seen or heard of his siblings anywhere. Let’s ignore the fact that the whole family is directly or indirectly connected to government in one way or another for now.

The national chairman of PRP on INEC’s website is not Hakeem Baba Ahmed. Let’s not set the coalition up for another court debacle please. @atiku @PeterObi @ChibuikeAmaechi @KwankwasoRM @raufaregbesola @_dinomelaye @OlumideAkpata FYI

Not directly related but have you joined ADC @markessien?

@_lanrewaju_ @seunokin @channelstv @ARISEtv Since you know how to be a journalist, what is stopping you from being one? Teacher Njoku!

Journalism is dead in this country. See @seunokin quoting grok on live tv. And posting unverified photos. There’s little to no difference between @channelstv and @ARISEtv

@MasterBolaji But Tinubu has borrowed more than all these past presidents combined. Where did the borrowings go?

Fuel Subsidy spending by Nigerian Presidents: Obasanjo ~₦812bn Yar’Adua ~₦1.1tn GEJ ~₦8.7tn Buhari ~₦10–₦11tn Tinubu: subsidy removed (₦0 direct). Note: 90% of these funds were borrowed. Tinubu stopped the borrowing by removing fuel subsidy.

@cent_haysmall Poverty makes you think one has to be “funded” before one can afford flight tickets, food and hotel. It is the chains they’ve wrapped around your neck that makes you see these as luxurious. This is exactly why the ruling class does everything possible to keep you impoverished.

My questions are, these people no Dey work? Who Dey fund them? How someone living in Edo with no job has money to fly to Abuja like 7 times a week? Who’s paying for their hotels, feeding and accommodation?

@UnkleAyo My colleague is 24. He has a girlfriend and they have a son and 1 dog. He lives in a house he bought for his 23rd birthday. He and his girlfriend drive nice cars. He’s not from a privileged home and he doesn’t even have a university degree. He leveraged a working system.

My colleague is 27. He has a girlfriend, 1 dog, 2 children. He lives in his house, one he bought with his girlfriend last year. He drives a nice SUV. He's not from a privileged home. All he had was a degree. Reflecting upon how many Nigerians can never have this testimony.

@renoomokri Reno, stop lying. MKO did not go to jail because he won an election. He was arrested because he declared himself president. Secondly, you claim Abacha was PO’s former boss. I challenge you and your kind to provide a photo of PO and Abacha in a meeting; group photos are welcome.

This Is MKO Abiola, The Winner of The June 12 Presidential Election, In a Black Maria With a Gun Pointed At Him. For Fighting For Democracy, Chief Abiola Was Jailed By Abacha, Peter Obi's Former Boss and Hero, Who He Says Is More Democratic Than President Tinubu! Is This What Democracy Means To Peter Obi? Win Elections and Go To Straight To Jail?

@akintollgate …flight constraints”. That does not look unplanned in anyway. There’s no value for human life nor compassion exhibited in the act. I’m unsurprised because a person can’t give what s(he) doesn’t have. If that incident involved a prominent person, would BAT have acted the same?

@akintollgate Akin, you are a dishonest person. How are you “sure the protocol and security team had their reasons”? So they made the grieving families board vehicles to the airport to “receive” condolence from APC’s lord and saviour, and you’re here putting it down to “tight logistics and…

@realFFK @renoomokri Why are you interested in their genitalia? Did you witness their castration? Are you sure you’re not something our laws prohibit?

A CASTRATED BUNCH OF FRUSTRATED CLOWNS... Given the fact that they have been castrated by the courts and INEC and they no longer have a party and platform to stand and run on, the Association of Destructive C*nts (ADC) now have more to worry about than @realFFK and @renoomokri! Who are the ones that have been REJECTED now??? 🤣 They have been REJECTED by the courts, REJECTED by INEC, REJECTED by their original founders and REJECTED by the Nigerian people for being erratic, unstable, unreliable, unserious, irrational, epileptic, divided, crooked, hopelessly corrupt, palpably insane and wholly incapable of forming a united, disciplined and battle-ready political party! They can't even form a party and hold it together yet they want to rule Nigeria? God forbid! To be sure they are not just a danger to themselves but to our country! May I suggest that they channel all their energy to building up and forming a real opposition party over the next 5 years and then field a candidate for the 2031 presidential election? Given the circumstances that is their best bet because 2027 is already lost to them. INEC and the courts have spoken. The ADC has been gelded. They have been left with no balls. They are now a party of eunuchs. They no longer have a platform. They are like a headless chicken. They are like a sorcerer with no staff. They are like a witch with no wand. They are like a racehorse with no legs. They are like a race car with no engine. They are like a ship with no sail. They are like a castle with no walls. They are like a warrior with no sword. They are like a Knight with no armour. They are like a jilted lover who is all dressed up with nowhere to go. Poor souls. God works in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform. This is what happens when all you do is pose for group shots, talk balderdash on television, contract an army of malignant and malevolent trolls on social media, employ the services of leporous and incompetent spokesmen, contract rag sheets to spread lies and fake news, rely on your foreign friends to bring carnage and destruction and destabilise our country and lament from morning till night without offering any concrete solutions. Frankly they got what they deserved. Actually I believe they deserve even worse and worse will surely come their way. To my friends and brothers in the ADC I say "Pe le o", stay calm and have a great day! 😂 (FFK)

@kayodebakre8 How was Labour Party funded in 2023 elections?

They asked a Former Senate President if he would join ADC. He said no. He asked if they have any gov that can fund them. The truth is funding is majorly through govt money. No one uses hard earned money for such venture. So ADC will face serious funding problems

@biolakazeem Why are you lot obsessed with Obi? If the ADC presents an Obi/Kwankwaso “non-viable” ticket, does that not make it easier for your current ruiners? Why una dey convulse for another person problem? Any way, I understand you have to justify your 3K for the month.

I understand this is the season of unbridled excitement but it's funny how anyone thinks Obi/Kwankwanso is a viable ticket. That ticket won't win up 10 states. Any ticket that doesn't have a Northerner at the top has no chance in NE/NW. But go ahead & enjoy the delusion.

@afrisagacity And Tinubu said OBJ is 16 years older than him. Interesting!

Someone just sent me this VIDEO of Fmr President Olusegun Obasanjo’s arrival at the Liasbi Festival, Egbaliganza 2026. How is this man almost 90 years old and still this strong, agile, and active?✍️

@EleluAyoola Your ability to reason.

Please tell me what was working in Nigeria under PDP that APC destroyed? Name just one.

@woye1 @CCSoludo @officialSKSM Is Willie Obiano, the immediate past governor present?

Soludo is well respected. @CCSoludo 2: Two former Presidents attending his swearing in. OBJ and GEJ. 3: then, the President is represented by his VP @officialSKSM 4: former Govs were invited ooooo. May be he will show us late as usual.

@Morris_Monye Morris, I assume you refer to the OM. The only way to influence anything is to get so closely involved in that thing. It may have been frustratingly hard for you but IMHO, it wasn’t the best decision to resign, then come online to rant. If it’s still possible, consider a rescind

People doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result can only be mad people. You made same mistake in your setup in 2023. You are making exact same mistake heading into 2027 It’s madness.

@KemiBadenoch @JamesCleverly When did you start hatching this plan? If only the conservatives had the opportunity to lead the UK in the last decade, just maybe this plan could have been implemented 🙃
