Nollywood actor and politician Kenneth Okonkwo has withdrawn his support for the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Atiku Abubakar, citing the continued marginalisation of the South-East geopolitical zone.

Okonkwo’s decision followed the official announcement by the ADC National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, confirming former Rivers State Governor and former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, from the South-South, as Atiku’s vice-presidential running mate for the 2027 general election.

Reacting to the development, Okonkwo stated that any arrangement excluding the South-East from the top two executive positions in 2027 perpetuates unpardonable injustice against his people.

He emphasized that the region has not produced a President or Vice President since 1999 and noted that the ADC’s founder, Ralphs Nwosu, did not sacrifice leadership of the party in 2025 to enable the marginalisation of his own zone.

Okonkwo maintained that he would not campaign for any presidential ticket that fails to include a person of South-East origin as President or Vice President in 2027.

Okonkwo shared his decision in a statement released on his official X handle:

I heard from the social media that ADC has picked its vice presidential candidate from the South-South. If this is true, it is unfortunate, as this will continue the crude marginalisation of the South-East.

This Geo-Political Zone has neither produced a President or Vice President since 1999. To deny the South-East the opportunity to produce the President or Vice President in ADC in 2027 will amount to perpetuating the marginalisation.

The ADC was founded by Ralphs Nwosu from the South-East in 2005. He made the sacrifice to give up the party in 2025 for the coalition to usher in a better Nigeria. He couldn’t have made that sacrifice to marginalise his own people.

I did not join the coalition to assist in marginalisation of my own people further. I am of the opinion that if we made a sacrifice to give up the National Chairman and the President, it will amount to unpardonable injustice to deny us the Vice President in 2027.

I joined politics to fight for a better Nigeria where no region, Geo-Political Zone, or person will be marginalised.

The only favour I asked Atiku Abubakar, who openly declared that he is the pathway to the presidency of the South-East, is to show it by choosing someone from the South-East to be his Vice.

If it is confirmed that he has chosen a candidate from the South-South, I wish him well. I am not favourably disposed to campaigning for any presidential ticket that does not have a person of South-East origin as President or Vice in 2027.

Peter Obi, presidential candidate of NDC, has stated during his first year as a student of UNN, he bought a brand-new Volkswagen car from J. Allen in Enugu for 2,700 naira

In a video shared by Advocacy For Good Governance, Obi said during his third year, he bought a new Peugeot 505 from Umeano Motors for 7,350 naira

Obi said it was also easy for him to travel to the United Kingdom as a student. He stated that there was a student airfare discount that reduced the cost of a return trip to UK by 50 percent. He said a regular ticket cost 200 naira, while students paid only 100 naira to travel to UK

In Obi's words: "In my first year I bought my first car, Volkswagen, from J. Allen in Enugu for 2,700 naira and it was a brand new car. By my third year I bought a Peugeot 505 from Umeano motors for 7,350 naira. It was very easy for me to travel as a student to the United Kingdom over the weekend because we had student fare. Trip to London then was 200 naira but student fare was 100 naira because it was 50 percent discount"

According to report by Vanguard on Monday, June 15, 2026, a political dispute has emerged following a Federal High Court ruling ordering the deregistration of five political parties, including the African Democratic Congress (ADC), sparking widespread rejection from affected leaders and other political stakeholders.

The court, presided over by Justice Peter Lifu in Abuja, directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to remove the ADC, Action Peoples Party (APP), Action Alliance (AA), Accord Party, and Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) from its official register.

The judge held that the parties failed to meet the constitutional requirements needed to retain their registration status under Nigerian electoral law.

Reacting strongly to the judgment, ADC National Chairman, Senator David Mark, dismissed the ruling and insisted that the party would still participate in the 2027 general elections.

Through his media aide, Kola Ologbondiyan, Mark described the decision as a temporary challenge that would be overturned on appeal.

He maintained that the ADC remains confident in the judiciary and would pursue all legal avenues to reverse the ruling.

Mark also argued that the decision raises serious concerns about fair hearing and democratic rights, noting that the Court of Appeal had earlier issued a stay of proceedings and adjourned related matters.

He warned that the judgment could undermine democratic freedoms and described it as harmful to Nigeria’s political system.

According to him, the party remains committed to continuing preparations for future elections despite the setback.

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, also criticized the ruling, describing it as inconsistent with a subsisting order from the appellate court.

He insisted that the lower court proceeded in error despite existing directives and expressed confidence that the appeal process would restore the party’s position on the ballot.

Adeleke urged party supporters to remain calm and optimistic about a favorable outcome.

Similarly, African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, condemned the judgment, calling it undemocratic.

He argued that parties that have already conducted primaries and are preparing for elections should not be removed through judicial decisions, warning that such actions weaken Nigeria’s multi-party democracy.

The ruling has ignited broader debate on INEC’s constitutional powers to deregister political parties that fail to win electoral seats.

While Justice Lifu ruled that the affected parties no longer met legal thresholds for continued registration, stakeholders insist the matter is far from settled, as appeals are expected to continue ahead of the 2027 elections.

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke
Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has described that judgement of the Federal High Court deregistering five political parties as an abuse of court process and direct violation of a subsisting order of the Court of Appeal.

In a statement to Naija News by his Spokesperson Mallam Olawale Rasheed issued in response to the ruling, the governor said the Appeal Court had made an order for the stay of proceedings by the Federal High Court, more particularly the said judgment that was delivered.

He expressed surprise that the lower court still proceeded to deliver a ruling on a matter already acted upon by the Court of Appeal.

Adeleke said: “It is on record before Honourable Justice Peter Lifu J that in the record of proceedings of the Court of Appeal of 22nd May, 2026 and which was put before his Lordship as Exhibit MAC 2 the Court of Appeal specifically pronounced that ‘The delivery of the judgement is still part of the proceedings of the Court.'”

The governor urged people to be calm as the Court of Appeal is taking up the matter tomorrow Tuesday, assuring that “efforts to stop Osun people from exercising their voting rights will fail by the special grace of almighty God. The Rule of Law and Humanity shall prevail at the end of the day.

“I call on Osun people to remain calm and be assured that our rights will be affirmed and our party, the Accord will be on the ballot on August 15th.

“We will not only be on the ballot, we will win overwhelmingly the forthcoming governorship election. We should remain calm and forge ahead with mobilisation of our people.

“I also want to assure our people that the flag off of our campaign is holding as scheduled tomorrow. They want to distract us. We are going ahead and we are winning this election”, the state governor said.

“Our lawyers are taking all the necessary steps to right the wrong.“

The Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, has blamed Nigeria’s worsening insecurity on poor governance, poverty, and prevailing socio-economic challenges, describing the situation as a reflection of deeper systemic failures.

Mohammed made the remarks on Sunday during a sympathy visit to Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, at his residence in Ibadan over the abduction of pupils and teachers from Yawota and Ahoro-Esinle communities in Oriire Local Government Area of the state.

He was accompanied by leaders of the Allied People’s Movement (APM), including the party’s National Chairman, Yusuf Dantalle, and its Bauchi State governorship candidate, Yakubu Adamu.

The abducted schoolchildren and their teachers were reportedly kidnapped in the Ahoro-Esinle community on May 15, 2026, and have remained in captivity for a month.

Speaking during the visit, Mohammed said, “The security situation is a manifestation of a lack of good governance, poverty and the challenges of life.

“Beyond that, I think the citizenry should sit up and make sure they take their destinies into their own hands.

“People need to take their destinies into their own hands to ensure that they do not become informants or play along with criminal tendencies. And, of course, they must make sure that they elect good people to lead them.

“Leadership is another factor, and they must ensure that they bring about change because they know where the shoe pinches.

“I don’t have to talk too much. We don’t have to exonerate ourselves at any level of leadership, whether at the sub-national, national or local government level, but I think during the next election cycle, people should take their destinies into their own hands.”

Mohammed also expressed solidarity with Makinde and called for stronger collaboration among security agencies to tackle the country’s growing security concerns.

Addressing journalists after the visit, the Bauchi governor said he had come to share in the grief of the Oyo State Government and its people over the prolonged captivity of the abducted pupils and teachers.

“I am here with our leaders from the Allied People’s Movement to commiserate with our presidential candidate and the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, over the travails that the people and government of Oyo are going through as a result of the abduction of our schoolchildren and their teachers.

“It has been a lingering issue for some time, and we are really sharing the grief with him. We are here to encourage him that what he is doing to ensure their release is being noticed by the whole nation. And we join, on behalf of myself and the government and people of Bauchi State, to commiserate with and encourage him to ensure that these Nigerians are released,” he said.

Mohammed expressed confidence that the efforts being made by the Oyo State Government would soon secure the freedom of the abducted teachers and pupils. He also pledged his support in any capacity necessary to facilitate their release.

The Bauchi governor further disclosed that the visit provided an opportunity to congratulate Makinde on his emergence as the APM’s presidential candidate.

“He is my jolly good friend, a young man with energy, determination and drive, who can do a lot to change the trajectory of leadership and good governance in Nigeria,” Mohammed said.

He added that Nigeria’s security architecture required critical examination to promote greater commitment and improved synergy among security operatives, as well as between security agencies and citizens.

Among those who joined Makinde in receiving the delegation were the Secretary to the Oyo State Government, Musibau Babatunde; the Commissioner for Public Works and Transport, Abdulmojeed Mogbonjubola; and the Senior Executive Assistant on General Duties, Bayo Lawal.
