The African Democratic Congress (ADC) Presidential Campaign Council has raised an alarm over an alleged clandestine plot by the federal government to pressure the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) into postponing the January 16, 2027 presidential election.
According to the party, the proponents of the alleged shift are attempting to use the recent Ebola outbreak as a justification to alter the official electoral timetable.
Key Highlights of the Allegation:
- Warning Against Behind-the-Scenes Changes: The ADC campaign council strongly cautioned against any attempt to rewrite the election schedule behind closed doors at the Presidential Villa, insisting that the scheduled date belongs to Nigerians.
- Call for Transparency and Evidence: The party demanded that any official proposal to modify the electoral timeline must be made transparently, backed by verified, published health evidence, and subjected to public scrutiny rather than being used as a political escape route.
- Stance on Democratic Accountability: Challenging the administration, the ADC asserted that citizens have a right to assess the government’s economic record and pass their verdict at the ballot box on the designated date.
