The faction of the African Democratic Congress led by Dumebi Kachikwu will today hold a national convention in Abuja as part of efforts to prepare for the 2027 general elections and shape the party’s next political steps.
The plan was announced through a press invitation released by the faction’s Acting National Working Committee Chairman, Kingsley Temitope Ogah. According to the organisers, the gathering is expected to attract party leaders, delegates, state executives, youth and women groups, alongside other political stakeholders from different parts of the country.
The convention is expected to focus on internal party matters and preparations for future elections. Party members are also expected to discuss the direction of the faction and make decisions that will affect its participation in the 2027 electoral cycle.
Part of the programme includes the selection of members into the National Working Committee and consideration of other issues connected to the party’s structure and operations ahead of the polls.
The meeting is also expected to create room for discussions on national issues, political participation, grassroots engagement and plans aimed at strengthening the party’s presence across the country.
Organisers said the convention forms part of wider moves to position the faction ahead of the coming election season and build support among party members and stakeholders.
The event is scheduled to take place at A-Class Garden in Wuse 2, Abuja, with activities expected to begin by 3 pm.
