The National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, Senator David Mark, has warned against the use of state institutions to manipulate the 2027 general elections. He recently had his say while speaking in Abuja when he received a delegation of the International Republican Institute, which is in Nigeria as part of its assessment of preparations for the 2027 elections.
Insisting that the credibility of the polls must be non-negotiable, Mark warned against intimidation, violence and other forms of electoral malpractice, stressing that the ADC expects the next general elections to be transparent, inclusive, peaceful and free from interference.
He added that the integrity of the electoral process would be critical to determining whether Nigerians would have confidence in the outcome of the 2027 polls.
His words, “For us in the ADC, the credibility of the 2027 elections must be non-negotiable. We expect the electoral process to be transparent, inclusive, peaceful and free from manipulation, intimidation and the abuse of state institutions.
Elections should not be treated as war or a do-or-die affair. They should be a democratic process through which citizens freely choose their leaders and advance their aspirations for development and a better quality of life.”
