Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has formally joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC). He completed his registration at Jada Ward 1 in Jada Local Government Area of Adamawa State.
Atiku resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in July, amid prolonged internal disputes. His move to the ADC follows the recent membership validation exercise led by former Interior Minister Rauf Aregbesola, who encouraged both existing members and new entrants to complete their registration.
Announcing his defection on Monday through his X handle, Atiku shared a photo of himself holding his ADC membership card with the caption, “It’s official.”
In July, Atiku had also backed the adoption of the ADC as the coalition platform for opposition figures preparing to challenge President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election.
