As the 2027 general elections approach, no fewer than 310 lawyers have volunteered to defend the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in all pending and anticipated legal matters nationwide.
Abdullahi Abdurrahman, Leader of the National Legal Support Group for the ADC, disclosed this during a courtesy visit to the party’s Interim National Chairman, Senator David Mark.
Abdurrahman revealed that the group has members across all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), ready to respond to legal challenges on behalf of the party.
The ADC’s legal team includes high-profile lawyers such as Barr. Peter Oyewole, Abubakar Malami (SAN), and Prof. Oserheimen Osunbor.
“We are prepared to handle any case against ADC anywhere in the country,” Abdurrahman stated, commending Senator Mark’s integrity and leadership.
He urged the party’s Legal Adviser to provide necessary documents to enable the legal team to work effectively.
Peter Oyewole reassured the gathering that all legal procedures regarding the recent coalition were properly followed, while Senator David Mark expressed appreciation for the lawyers’ commitment and encouraged them to remain proactive.
“ADC is the party to beat in 2027,” Senator Mark declared.
