In 2027, a faction of the African Democratic Congress, led by Nafiu Bala Gombe, has firmly rejected former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar's inclusion as their presidential candidate and emphatically stated they would not form any alliance with the G100 Coalition. Gombe accused Atiku and certain members of the G100 of attempting to exert pressure on the ADC's leadership to accept an arrangement that would jeopardize the party's autonomy.
In a recent statement, Gombe affirmed that the ADC would contest the 2027 elections independently, refusing to allow personal ambitions to dictate their future. The situation has been further complicated by a power struggle within the ADC, with two factions vying for control - one led by former Senate President David Mark, who is presently acknowledged by INEC, and Gombe's group challenging this authority in court.
Gombe alleged that certain individuals within the G100 Coalition and Atiku were engaging in clandestine talks to compel the ADC into a merger or alliance prior to the elections. He firmly emphasized that the ADC has no intentions of forming any political arrangement with any other party before the 2027 general elections.
