The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has officially released the list of its party executive structures, covering positions from the Polling Unit level up to the State level.

The development is seen as a major step towards strengthening the party’s internal framework and improving coordination across its various tiers.

In a statement, the party said the move is aimed at enhancing grassroots participation while ensuring a more structured and efficient system of leadership.

According to the ADC, the newly outlined structure is expected to promote inclusiveness and provide a clearer operational framework for members at all levels.

The party urged its members and stakeholders to familiarise themselves with the newly released structure and actively contribute to its implementation.

It added that greater participation would help build a more organised and result-driven political platform.

The ADC reaffirmed its commitment to fostering unity within its ranks as it continues efforts to expand its influence nationwide.

The party noted that the strengthened structure would play a key role in positioning it for future political engagements.

Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has claimed that he has been under pressure to contest for the Nasarawa North Senatorial seat in the 2027 election.

The governor made the disclosure during the visit of the state executive members to his country home in Akwanga LGA on Saturday, March 21.

Governor Sule also revealed the identity of those pressuring him to contest in the election, a development that has led to mixed reactions from Nigeria.

Abdullahi Sule, the governor of Nasarawa State, has claimed that he has been under pressure to contest for the Nasarawa North senatorial seat in the 2027 general elections.

The governor made the revelation while hosting the state executive council members, led by Deputy Governor Emmanuel Akabe, at his residence in Gudi Country Home in the Akwanga local government area of the state.

According to Daily Trust, Governor Sule cited pressure from some stakeholders who are asking him to contest, and the need for Nasarawa North to have quality representation.

With all the pressure coming from our leaders, and so I don’t want them to feel offended that I have not been responding, I promise them I will contest when the time comes.”

Governor Sule disclosed that he had been planning to support one person, but had a change of mind when the person joined the call on him to contest for the position.

He went further to explain that he is consulting with stakeholders before he makes the final decision and that traditional rulers and senior politicians from Nasarawa North are also persuading him to contest for the senatorial seat.

However, the governor’s claim has started generating reactions from the people of the state. Below are some of their reactions:

Mohammed Zakariyau said it is the governor’s interest:

“You are interested in going and nothing else because that’s your sole choice, nobody can decide your future for you, and therefore, the issue of ‘under pressure from certain quarters is immaterial here'”.

Cos Mafuyai projected that the governor may not perform if elected as a senator:

“People who are pressured don’t perform once elected, but people who nurse the ambition into elective office and work hard to win do.” 

Bem Haanya urged the governor to be wary of betrayal:

“Na so dem mount pressure on Darius Dickson Ishaku o. Groups from Southern Taraba were flocking to Government House, Jalingo, to persuade him to contest for the senatorial seat, yet on election day, they abandoned him.”

Emmanuel Yohanna Allu questioned the governor’s claim:

“If you want to contest, no one is stopping you, but don’t use the word pressure. If I may ask, who is pressuring you?” 

Longji Goro Job criticised the governor:

“One or two clowns that they normally give pocket money will tell them, ‘Oga, why not go for senate,’ and they will say under pressure.”
