BREAKING!! ADC Constitution rules out Peter Obi's 2027 presidential ambition, backs Atiku, Amaechi

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) constitution effectively rules out Peter Obi, the former Labour Party presidential candidate, from contesting for the presidency under the ADC's platform in 2027.

This decision stems from the party's constitutional provision that disqualifies individuals affiliated with other political parties from seeking the party's top ticket. Specifically, the ADC's third schedule-guidelines for the conduct of primaries-states that only registered, card-carrying members of the party who are not affiliated with any other political party are eligible to seek nomination for public office.

This provision, contained in Article 8 on membership, stipulates that a person "must not belong to any other political party," and if previously affiliated, must have resigned from such membership.

Peter Obi, who has openly identified with the ADC and declared his intention to contest the presidency in 2027, has not resigned his membership of the Labour Party. This poses a significant hurdle for Obi's potential candidacy under the ADC.

In contrast, the prospects of two other contenders, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and ex-Rivers Governor Rotimi Amaechi, getting the ADC ticket appear brighter. Both Atiku and Amaechi have resigned their memberships from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and All Progressives Congress (APC), respectively, and joined the ADC.

According to the ADC's guidelines, having resigned from their previous parties, they may qualify for the party's nomination as they are cleared by the party's National Executive Committee.

When contacted for clarification on Obi's status, Obi's media aide, Tanko Yunusa, stated that the former Anambra governor had not left the Labour Party.

"Well, that will be made public if he decides to do that. At the moment, he is still a member of the Labour Party," Yunusa told LEADERSHIP Weekend.

The ADC emphasizes the importance of deepening internal democracy by ensuring that primary elections are free, fair, and credible, reflecting the true choice of its members.

"The electoral committee of the party shall conduct primary elections that will produce credible candidates that reflect the choice of the people. Nomination of candidates for elections into public offices shall be done by members of the Party in accordance with the provisions of the Electoral Act," the party's document states.

The ADC also reserves the authority to adopt either direct or indirect primaries or a consensus method for selecting candidates, as determined by the National Executive Committee.

The Political transfer window is still open. APC is signing top strikers, PDP get management issues like Manchester United, and financial problems like Barcelona. They either recruit young players from their academy or rely on sponsorship deals to sign some defenders, to avoid conceding too many goals, because they seem not prepared for the 2027 PCL

Since APC signed BAT, they’ve dominated the league. The Wike loan deal was a masterstroke, helping them beat his former club in Edo.

All eyes are on Osun, where the newly acquired defensive midfielder (Sheriff) and left winger (Okowa) will be looking forward to forming a formidable Galacticos with Wike and Dapo. According to the club CEO (BAT), negotiations to sign the Osun state skilful midfielder to be back up for Sheriff are at their Zenith.

We look forward to seeing the strategy that would be deployed by the LP FC this time around, as they are in serious negotiations to sign Kano state no 9 to support their attack in the upcoming 2027 PCL.

On the other side, veteran goalkeeper El Rufai is trying to recruit a formidable squad that may include the likes of veteran defender Atiku to create a new Club or acquire an old club for the 2027 PCL. While attackers like Saraki and Tambawal had been out injured, they have started personal training to be fit for the next season. PDP, LP and APC are monitoring their progress. Stay tuned for more updates
