Kwara ADC Declares Readiness for 2027 Elections, Vows to Resist Intimidation

The Kwara State chapter of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has officially declared its preparedness for the upcoming 2027 general elections. The party leadership has firmly stated that no form of intimidation or adverse judicial rulings will deter their participation in the polls.

This declaration follows a State Executive Committee meeting in Ilorin, the state capital. Babatunde Muhammed, the State Chairman, expressed strong confidence in the ADC's prospects, emphasizing the party's singular focus on achieving electoral victory. He asserted, "The 2027 election is ours to win. No amount of intimidation and no level of judicial rascality can deter ADC from contesting and emerging victorious in flying colours."

The 2027 election is ours to win. No amount of intimidation and no level of judicial rascality can deter ADC from contesting and emerging victorious in flying colours.

The party's resolute stance comes in the wake of a Federal High Court judgment that ordered the deregistration of the ADC and four other political parties. However, the party commended the Court of Appeal for its timely intervention, which has bolstered confidence in the democratic process. The appellate court reportedly condemned the lower court's judgment and granted a stay of execution on the deregistration order affecting the ADC and other affected parties.

Unity is the greatest need of this hour. This judgment has proven that the will of the people cannot be deregistered by any court.

The Kwara ADC is now calling for enhanced unity among its members and urging party faithful across the state to intensify grassroots mobilization efforts in preparation for the 2027 elections. The party believes the recent court decision underscores that the will of the people cannot be nullified by judicial pronouncements. Candidates and supporters are encouraged to actively engage with voters, carrying the party's message of "rescue and rebuilding" to every community.

The ADC reiterated its commitment to issue-based politics, credible elections, and the restoration of political power to the people. The party extended its gratitude to its members for their patience and resilience during the period of legal uncertainty, assuring the state's residents of the ADC's readiness to provide leadership should they be granted the mandate in 2027.

To all ADC candidates across Kwara: the time to work is now. There is no more time to waste. Let us take our message of rescue and rebuilding to every ward, every unit, every home.
