ADC: Mark's Leadership Passed Through Due process, Nwosu, Fmr National Chairman
Former National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Ralph Nwosu, has stated that the party’s current leadership structure led by Sen. David Mark followed the due process.
Nwosu vowed that the party will publicly challenge the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) over its recent decision affecting the party’s leadership, promising a detailed rebuttal backed by evidence within days.
Speaking during an interview on *Arise* *News* on Thursday, April 2nd, 2026, Nwosu expressed strong dissatisfaction with INEC’s actions, describing them as unjustifiable and misleading. He revealed that the party leadership is already mobilizing to counter the commission’s position through both public engagement and documentation.
According to him, the ADC will, within a short timeframe, present comprehensive evidence to discredit INEC’s stance and demonstrate that due process was followed in establishing the party’s current leadership structure.
“Within the next two days, we are going to show the world exactly how ridiculous what INEC is doing truly is, because we have all the documents,” Nwosu stated.
He emphasized that the party possesses certified records, including documents validated by INEC itself, which he claims will expose inconsistencies in the commission’s recent decisions. The planned disclosure, he noted, is intended not only to defend the legitimacy of the party’s leadership but also to hold the electoral body accountable in the court of public opinion.
Nwosu’s remarks come amid escalating tensions within the ADC, following INEC’s move to alter its recognition of key party officials and suspend acknowledgment of certain internal processes pending legal resolution. The development has triggered a fresh round of political and legal contestation ahead of Nigeria’s 2027 general elections.
The former chairman maintained that the ADC remains confident in its position and is prepared to confront the situation head-on, signaling that the coming days will be critical in shaping public perception of the dispute.
