In a recent announcement made in Makurdi, Benue State, the governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Herman Hembe, has expressed confidence that the party's presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, will secure victory in the 2027 presidential election. Hembe unveiled his deputy, John Abba, and revealed that a committee was formed to select the deputy gubernatorial candidate following Hembe's own election.
The selection process was transparent, endorsed by the national chairman of the party, Senator David Mark. Hembe attributed the success of the party's presidential candidate to a favorable distribution of votes from the southern part of the country, with Peter Obi and Bola Tinubu competing against Atiku in the northern geo-political zones.
Hembe urged party members to support all candidates in the upcoming presidential and National Assembly elections, believing that a victory in these elections would have a positive impact on subsequent ones. He also expressed his intention to serve only one term to complete the eight-year tenure of Jechira Zone and establish a historical legacy before handing over to Benue South senatorial district, Zone C.
