No fewer than 4,100 members from different political parties have defected to the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Bosso Local Government Area of Niger State.
The defectors were received at the ADC Secretariat in Bosso, where the party’s State Chairman, Hon. Musa Hassan, described the move as a strong sign that people are unhappy with the ruling APC in the state.
Hon. Hassan said the growing support for ADC shows that many residents are disappointed with the APC government and are ready for change ahead of the 2027 general elections. He urged the new members to work hard to help ADC win future elections.
The event also featured the official opening of the ADC Bosso Local Government Secretariat in Maikunkele.
The ADC chairman encouraged the defectors to complete their party registration and also register with INEC, stressing that voter cards are important for making their voices count. He especially advised young people to get ready early.
Bosso ADC Chairman, Hon. Mallam Umaru Usman Maikunkele, revealed that the defectors include 10 ward councillors who earlier contested APC primaries. He added that more politicians are expected to join ADC soon.
Speaking for the defectors, Hon. Abubakar Popoi said they left APC due to unfair practices during party primaries and promised to work for ADC’s victory in 2027.
