2027: ADC Will Not Accept Rigging or Allow Ourselves to Be Rigged Out – David Mark

 David Mark, national chairman of the African Democratic
Congress (ADC), says the party will adhere to electoral rules during the 2027
elections but will resist any attempt to manipulate the process.

 

Mark spoke on Wednesday in Abuja when the governing council
of the Savannah Centre for Diplomacy, Democracy and Development, led by
Olukayode Ariwoola, former chief justice of Nigeria, visited him at the ADC
headquarters.

 

“We hold ourselves to the highest standards of good conduct
as a political party. We will play by the rules,” Mark said.

 

“But we will not accept rigging or allow ourselves to be
rigged out. We are committed to playing politics in a manner that promotes
public confidence in democracy.”

 

The centre’s governing council, known as the council of the
wise, was reconstituted in June to engage relevant institutions and political
stakeholders towards fostering peaceful, free and credible elections.

 

The meeting with the ADC chairman was part of the centre’s
ongoing engagement with political parties ahead of the elections.

 

Ariwoola urged the ADC leadership to ensure that its
candidates and supporters adhered to the Independent National Electoral
Commission’s (INEC) rules and refrained from actions that could trigger
political violence.
