ADC accuses PDP of splitting opposition votes ahead of 2027 elections
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has alleged that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is splitting opposition votes to the advantage of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), urging Nigerians to reject the PDP in the 2027 general elections.
The party’s governorship candidate in Jigawa State, Senator Sabo Muhammad Nakudu, made the claim during the Jigawa South-West ADC stakeholders’ meeting held in Dutse over the weekend.
Nakudu, who was represented by his running mate, Malam Aminu Ibrahim Ringim, argued that supporting the PDP at this stage would ultimately strengthen the APC’s chances in the next general election.
According to him, the PDP has failed to present a clear presidential candidate, a situation he described as evidence that the party lacks the commitment to challenge the ruling party.
“The PDP is only pretending to be in opposition. It is there to divide votes. It does not have a presidential candidate, and there are different interests within the party, including those aligned with Nyesom Wike and others,” he said.
He maintained that Nigerians had experienced the administrations of both the APC and the PDP and should now embrace the ADC as a credible alternative capable of delivering good governance.
“Every Nigerian has tested both the APC and the PDP. They know what each party has to offer. Now is the time to support the ADC for a better future,” he said.

Ringim disclosed that the party was engaging prominent political stakeholders across the state and expressed confidence that more politicians would soon defect to the ADC.
“What remains now is sustained contact and engagement with the people. At our level, we are already in discussions with key political stakeholders, and very soon Nigerians will witness more people joining the ADC,” he added.

He called on party candidates, officials and supporters to intensify grassroots mobilisation by recruiting more members ahead of the elections.
“At this stage, what we need is hard work, commitment and dedication to ensure our victory in the next general elections,” he said.
