Kaduna govt deployed policemen to shut down Atiku campaign venue - Melaye alleges

Former lawmaker Senator Dino Melaye announced that the African Democratic Congress, ADC, has received the Certified True Copy of a recent court judgement against the party. According to DAILY POST, the Federal High Court in Abuja recently dismissed the leadership of ADC led by David Mark. The ruling, delivered by Justice Peter Lifu, also invalidated all actions undertaken by the party under the David Mark-led administration, including their primary election held in May for the 2027 general elections.

This has created confusion and uncertainty about the future of ADC's presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar. However, Melaye stated on his official Facebook page that Atiku's name was not mentioned in the judgement. He wrote, "We have just received the Certified True Copy of the Justice Lifu's judgement. Nowhere in the judgement is Atiku Abubakar's name or any other candidate's name mentioned." Melaye added, "All the propaganda and lies of APC have expired. Atiku Abubakar is coming."
