Nafi’u Bala, who recently declared himself as the interim national chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), had actually resigned from his position in the party two months earlier, a document now reveals.

A resignation letter signed by Bala himself on May 18, 2025, shows that he voluntarily stepped down from his role as the party’s Deputy National Chairman.

In the letter, he stated that his resignation was “to make way for the opposition coalition,” which has since adopted the ADC as its political platform ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Despite his earlier resignation, Bala on Wednesday addressed a press conference in Abuja where he announced himself as the new leader of the party and rejected the legitimacy of the David Mark-led interim leadership.

He accused the coalition of hijacking the ADC’s structure “through unconstitutional means” and vowed to challenge what he described as the “total surrender” of the party to external forces in court.

“We wish to draw the attention of all members of our great party and Nigerians at large to the ongoing acts of political hooliganism being perpetrated by some individuals who were hitherto entrusted with the leadership of the party,” he said.

His declaration follows the July 2 formation of an opposition alliance involving former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate Peter Obi, former Senate President David Mark, and others.
