The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has updated its official website to reflect the new leadership structure of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), formally recognizing the party’s latest executives.
The commission confirmed the update on Wednesday, signaling an end to weeks of speculation surrounding the status of the party’s leadership. By aligning its records with the ADC’s current structure, INEC has given official backing to the new executives, providing clarity for party members, stakeholders, and political observers ahead of crucial political events.

Analysts believe the move will not only end internal disputes but also strengthen transparency within Nigeria’s electoral system. For many, the update serves as a confidence boost for party loyalists and the wider electorate, particularly as the country begins to prepare for the 2027 general elections.
INEC’s action is expected to calm lingering tensions and erase doubts over the ADC’s leadership status. The decision also underscores the commission’s role in fostering credibility and restoring trust in the political process, especially at a time when Nigerians are closely watching the activities of major parties such as the APC and PDP.
With this recognition, the ADC can now move forward under its new leadership without legal uncertainty, while political watchers note that the decision may influence alignments and strategies as the 2027 elections draw nearer.
