ADC Leaders Rally Supporters in Kebbi, Urge Voter Mobilisation Ahead of 2027 Elections

Leaders of the African Democratic Congress in Kebbi State have called on supporters to intensify grassroots mobilisation and secure their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) as preparations for the 2027 general elections gather momentum.

Speaking during the party’s congress, Aminu Bande, a retired major general who recently defected from the Peoples Democratic Party to the ADC, urged members to unite and work towards unseating the ruling All Progressives Congress at both state and national levels.

Bande emphasised the need for collective action, encouraging supporters to mobilise voters and actively participate in the electoral process to address what he described as growing challenges facing the country.

Also addressing party members, former Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, expressed confidence in the party’s future, urging members to remain committed and resolute. He described recent high-profile defections into the ADC as a sign of growing strength and momentum for the party in Kebbi State.

Earlier, the chairman of the congress committee, Suleiman M. Membo, commended the peaceful conduct of the exercise. He confirmed that congresses held across the state’s 225 wards and 21 local government areas were successfully concluded without disputes.

According to him, the process followed all relevant provisions of the Electoral Act, ensuring transparency in the emergence of the party’s new leadership structure in the state.

The committee’s secretary, Tukur Aliyu Tartsa, moved a motion for the adoption of consensus in selecting state executives, which was seconded by party stalwart Shehu Muhammed Koko.

Following the process, several party officials were confirmed by affirmation, including Sufiyanu Bala as Chairman, Musa Argungu as Vice Chairman, Abubakar Kalgo as Secretary, Haruna Haruna Jega as Publicity Secretary, and Dan Yaro Gwandu as Financial Secretary.

The development signals increasing political activity and realignment in Kebbi State as parties begin to position themselves ahead of the next election cycle.
