2027: Mobilise, Protect Your Votes, David Mark Tells ADC Supporters

National chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Senator David Mark, has urged party supporters to shun violence, intimidation and other actions capable of disrupting public peace before, during and after the 2027 general elections.

Mark also called on members of the party to remain peaceful, law-abiding and committed to democratic principles as the country approaches the next general elections.

He made the appeal on Saturday during the ADC presidential campaign rally held at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Stadium, Bauchi.

Represented by the party’s national secretary, Rauf Aregbesola, the ADC national chairman commended the massive support demonstrated by party members and residents of Bauchi State, expressing confidence that the state would deliver victory for the party.

He urged members to intensify grassroots mobilisation by reaching out to their families, friends, neighbours and communities to secure more support for the ADC and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.

“Mobilise your families, friends, neighbours and communities to come out and vote for our party,” he said.

Mark, however, stressed that voting alone would not be sufficient, urging party supporters to remain at their respective polling units until the voting process was concluded and the results sorted, counted, officially announced and recorded.

He further charged them to ensure that election results were properly transmitted and documented at the ward, local government and other relevant collation centres.

According to him, active participation in the electoral process and proper monitoring of results would help safeguard the party’s mandate.

“By doing this, you will have fulfilled your responsibility towards ensuring the victory of our party,” he said.

The ADC chairman said Nigeria urgently needed rejuvenation, resurgence and revival, expressing optimism that the party would provide the leadership required to bring about the desired transformation.

“Nigeria is in need of rejuvenation, resurgence and revival. Together, we can bring about the transformation and change our country urgently needs. Insha Allah, we will achieve this together,” he added.

In his remarks, Senator Abdul Ningi declared that Bauchi State was firmly behind Atiku Abubakar and assured that the people would vote for the ADC presidential candidate in the 2027 general elections.

Ningi also called on Nigerians across the country to support Atiku at the polls, arguing that his emergence as president would provide an opportunity to rescue the country from its current difficult situation.
