The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has announced the official timetable for its 2026 nationwide congresses and national convention.
In a statement issued by the party, the ADC explained that the exercise is part of its constitutional obligation to renew leadership structures at all levels of the organisation.
According to the party, the process will start at the grassroots and move through the different tiers of the party structure—beginning from polling units and wards, then progressing through local government and state levels before culminating in the National Convention.
The party noted that the congresses are intended to strengthen its internal democratic processes and reposition the organisation ahead of future political engagements.
The timetable approved by the party leadership is as follows:
Polling Unit and Ward Congresses: Tuesday, 7 April 2026
Local Government Area Congresses: Thursday, 9 April 2026
State Congresses: Saturday, 11 April 2026
National Convention: Tuesday, 14 April 2026
The ADC called on members across the country to participate actively in the process to ensure the exercise is conducted smoothly and transparently.
