2027: Atiku, Ogboru remain our presidential, governorship candidates - Delta ADC insists

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Delta State has reaffirmed its commitment to its current presidential and governorship candidates for the 2027 elections. Party Publicity Secretary Fred Akpevwe stated that the party's stance remains unchanged despite a recent Federal High Court ruling nullifying the position of former Vice President David Mark and his national leadership.

Akpevwe emphasized that the Supreme Court's earlier judgment affirming Mark as the authentic leader and chairman takes precedence over the lower court's decision. The ADC dismissed the recent legal action filed by Nafiu Bala Gombe as "forum shopping" and asserted that the ruling will not impact their candidates for the upcoming elections.
