Major Blow To ADC As Former Senator Joins Labour Party

Posted by Mcebisco May 3, 2026 24 Views

Former lawmaker representing Adamawa North Senatorial District in the 9th Assembly, Senator Ishaku Abbo, has resigned his membership of the African Democratic Congress.

In a statement issued via his Facebook page on Sunday, Abbo, who leads the SIA Movement, attributed his decision to the leadership crisis within the party at both the national and state levels, saying conflicting court rulings had created uncertainty.

He cited a Federal High Court judgment that voided the party’s state congresses, as well as a Supreme Court ruling that returned the leadership dispute to the Federal High Court for determination.

Abbo said he has joined the Labour Party, alongside his supporters ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The statement read, “Following the leadership crises that is rocking the ADC at national and state level more especially with the Federal High Court judgment that voided our state congresses and with the judgment of the Supreme Court that returned the leadership crises case back to the Federal High Court for determination, leaving all of us high on uncertainty, I, Senator Ishaku Abbo, as the leader of the SIA Movement, have joined the Labour Party alongside my supporters so we can contest elections in 2027.

“I ask all the people who are not happy with my movement to forgive me as I have deep respect for all my friends in ADC. I am leaving ADC not out of hate for the party but to pursue our political aspirations because I carry the dreams of many people. Yes, I am a hope of a generation.

“I have forgiven those who deliberately hurt me while I was building the ADC with my sweat, influence and resources. I have forgiven you but I will always remember your names.”

The former lawmaker added that he would subsequently unveil his preferred presidential candidate in close collaboration with his party, the LP.

Favor As Higher Power?

(The hidden truth)

Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
