The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has set May 12 for the inauguration of its newly elected state executives and chairmen.

Bolaji Abdulahhi, the party’s national publicity secretary, announced the date in a statement on Sunday.

“The party is pleased to announce that the formal inauguration of the newly elected state executives is scheduled to take place on May 12, 2026, or on a later date to be duly communicated by the national working committee,” he said.

While congratulating the new executives, he said, “These elections, carried out in line with the provisions of the law and the party’s constitution, reflect the ADC’s enduring commitment to internal democracy, transparency, and the rule of law. We commend all party members and stakeholders for exercising their democratic rights with maturity, discipline, and a shared sense of purpose.”

Mr Abdullahi urged all elected officials to remain steadfast in their dedication to the party’s ideals and vision, adding that the task ahead requires unity, discipline, and continued commitment to building a strong, credible alternative for the Nigerian people.

“The ADC remains confident that under your leadership at the state level, the party will continue to grow, deepen its structures, and strengthen its connection with citizens across the country”, he added.

He also urged the officials to remain committed to the party’s ideals and align with the leadership direction of the national chairman, Senator David Mark, as they work to strengthen the party nationwide.
