The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is set to remove the National Working Committee (NWC) of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) led by David Mark from its official portal following a court order.
The development marks a significant twist in the ongoing leadership crisis within the African Democratic Congress, as rival factions continue to battle for legitimacy and control of the party structure.
Sources indicate that the decision is in compliance with a subsisting court ruling, which directed the electoral body to recognize an alternative leadership faction within the party. The move is expected to reshape the internal dynamics of the ADC and may influence alignments ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Political analysts say the removal of the David Mark-led NWC from INEC’s portal could have far-reaching implications, particularly in determining which faction has the legal authority to conduct party activities, including primaries and nominations.
The ADC has in recent times been embroiled in internal disputes, with multiple factions laying claim to leadership positions. The latest development is likely to intensify the crisis while prompting further legal and political maneuvers among stakeholders.
As of the time of filing this report, INEC has yet to issue an official public statement confirming the update on its portal, but sources maintain that the process is underway in line with the court directive.
