The North East Executive Committee of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has rescinded the suspension placed on Adamawa State chairman of the Caretaker Committee, Sadiq Ibrahim Dasin. This decision came after a meeting of the party’s executive committee and stakeholders held on August 18, 2026, where it was determined that the chairman was to be removed from his position due to alleged maladministration and misconduct.
The news of this decision was communicated to Dasin in a letter dated August 24, 2026, by the North East Executive Committee, signed by the National Vice Chairman of the party in charge of the North East Zone, Mr. Daniel M. Bwala.
In response, the "factional" state executive committee, led by Sai’du Naira, vehemently opposed the reversal of the suspension. They argued that the petition against Dasin was never sent to the North East Zonal Executive Committee, but rather to the National headquarters of the party. The state chapter, under Naira’s faction, demanded that the North East leadership specify the exact provision of the ADC constitution that allows them to nullify a decision taken by the competent state organ.
Despite the factional state executive committee's objections, the North East Executive Committee stood firm in its decision, leaving the caretaker chairman's current position unclear.
