ADC Appeals for Calm Amid Supreme Court Verdict

LAGOS, NIGERIA — The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has appealed to its members to remain calm, united and law-abiding as the party awaits the Supreme Court’s reserved judgment on its leadership crisis.

Party leader Nafiu Bala Gombe issued the appeal on Wednesday in a goodwill message to members across the country.

Gombe commended the rank and file for their resilience and unwavering dedication to the party’s ideals amid the prolonged period of uncertainty.

According to the message, the ongoing legal process represents a defining moment that tests the party’s commitment to internal democracy and the rule of law.

Gombe expressed confidence that justice would ultimately prevail, reaffirming the legitimacy of the current leadership and the sanctity of the ADC’s constitution.

“As a law-abiding political party, we remain confident that justice will prevail,” he stated.

He urged members to sustain their patience and loyalty, describing their steadfastness as a source of strength for the party’s future.

Gombe further called on all ADC members to stay peaceful and focused on the shared vision of contributing meaningfully to Nigeria’s political landscape.

He assured that the party’s schedule of activities would be communicated through official channels immediately after the Supreme Court delivers its judgment.

NaijaChoice News reports that this development comes at a critical time for opposition politics in Nigeria, where unity and adherence to due process remain essential for credible democratic engagement.

The outcome of the Supreme Court judgment is expected to shape the ADC’s direction and its capacity to offer alternative leadership to Nigerians.
