A senior member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Chille Igbawua, has reiterated the party’s stance on fairness and transparency, stating that all aspirants will be given equal opportunities to contest for elective positions ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Igbawua made the statement on Monday during a live appearance on The Morning Brief, a programme on Channels Television, where he spoke on the party’s preparations and internal processes.
According to him, the ADC is committed to conducting open and competitive primaries, ensuring that no aspirant is given undue advantage over others.
“The party (ADC) is prepared to subject all members to a fair competition and to give a level playing ground for everybody who is a member and who wishes to contest election in any office.
“So we’re still selling those documents, the manifesto and the policy document of the ADC,” he said.
He added that the party has already made available its manifesto and constitution, which outline its policy direction and guiding principles as it prepares for the upcoming elections.
His comments come amid recent political shifts involving high-profile figures. Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi and former Kano State governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso recently left the ADC to join the Nigerian Democratic Congress.
