The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has addressed concerns regarding the silence of Rotimi Amaechi, the former governor of Rivers State, affirming that he continues to be the party's vice-presidential candidate. This statement was made by the party amidst discussions about its leadership and electoral strategy, according to ThisDay Live.

Kenneth Okonkwo, spokesperson for Atiku Abubakar of the African Democratic Congress, has denied opposing the selection of Rotimi Amaechi as the party's vice presidential candidate. He stated that no individual from the South-East was deemed qualified to be chosen for the position, although further details on the criteria for eligibility were not provided.

Ogba Oghenevewogaga, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is fearful of the opposition. He asserted that under the leadership of National Chairman David Mark and presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, the ADC will grow stronger, predicting that APC's concerns will materialize in 2027.

Jonathan Vatsa, a member of the All Progressives Congress in Niger State and former Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism, has advised Governor Mohammed Umar Bago to select a Christian running mate for the 2027 governorship election. He cautioned that failing to do so could lead to a loss of support for the party, citing concerns over the marginalization of Christians.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) criticized Bola Tinubu's administration for what it termed "grave insensitivity" following comments made by Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga, who reportedly stated he does not perceive the hunger and hardship expressed by Nigerians. The ADC urged political figures Atiku Abubakar and Rotimi Amaechi to remain vigilant in protecting the electoral process.

Former Attorney-General Abubakar Malami and former Minister of Transport Rotimi Amaechi are holding a closed-door meeting at Amaechi's residence in Abuja. This meeting involves chieftains of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and follows a recent visit by Amaechi to another former official.
