2027: Lifu ruling is useless and cannot stop ADC or Atiku, Ologbondiyan says

Kola Ologbondiyan, media and publicity director of the ADC Presidential Campaign Council, called Justice Peter Lifu’s ruling “useless”; it removed David Mark’s leadership and cancelled Atiku Abubakar’s nomination as the party’s presidential candidate. He argued that an earlier ruling by Justice Musa Liman, from a court of the same level, had upheld Mark’s succession to Ralph Nwosu and Rauf Aregbesola’s role as national secretary. Ologbondiyan said the ADC would challenge the ruling and seek interim relief, while maintaining that Mark and Aregbesola remain the party’s recognized leaders. He urged ADC candidates, members and supporters to stay calm and continue their campaigns.
