Stakeholders of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Kaduna State have asked the national leadership of the party to call former governor Nasir El-Rufai to order, accusing him of attempting to hijack the party ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Addressing a press conference in Kaduna yesterday, the leader of the stakeholders drawn from the 23 LGAs, Adamu Ahmed Dattijo, alleged that El-Rufai, Ja’afaru Sani and Bashir Sa’idu were undermining the elected state executive and sidelining grassroots structures.
Dattijo also alleged that El-Rufai was running a “one-man show,” holding meetings only with loyalists while ignoring the authentic ADC leadership. He described the development as “disrespectful and destructive” to party unity.
He also dismissed what they called a plan by El-Rufai and his allies to inaugurate a coalition transition in the state, warning that the move was illegitimate since it excluded recognised ADC leaders.
“If this continues, we risk going into the 2027 elections as a divided and weakened party and the result will be disastrous”.
Dattijo urged the ADC national leadership to intervene swiftly, stressing that no individual, no matter how highly placed, is bigger than the party.
