ADC: Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi have reportedly submitted their presidential nomination forms under the African Democratic Congress ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The development has sparked fresh conversations within Nigeria’s political space as major politicians continue to position themselves for the next presidential race. Supporters of both politicians believe their entrance into the contest could reshape the political calculations ahead of the election year.
Sources within the party revealed that the submission of the forms marks an important step in the party’s preparation for the 2027 elections. Party members and political observers are now watching closely to see how the ADC plans to manage the ambitions of multiple heavyweight aspirants within its platform.
Atiku, who has contested for the presidency several times, remains one of Nigeria’s most recognised opposition figures. His political influence across different regions of the country continues to make him a strong force in national politics.

Amaechi, on the other hand, is also considered a major political figure with years of experience in governance and party administration. His political structure, especially in the South-South region, is expected to play a key role if he officially joins the presidential contest.
The reported submission of forms by both politicians has already generated reactions online, with many Nigerians debating who stands a better chance if the race eventually narrows down to the two experienced politicians.
Political analysts believe the coming months could witness more alliances, negotiations, and strategic meetings among opposition leaders as preparations for the 2027 elections intensify.
Although neither camp has officially released detailed campaign plans yet, the move is being seen as an early signal that the battle for Nigeria’s presidency may begin sooner than expected.
