Former Attorney General Abubakar Malami has resigned from the APC and joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC), citing national decline and insecurity. As reported by Daily Post and TheCable, he joins a growing opposition coalition ahead of 2027.
- Malami confirmed his defection on Tuesday, July 2, 2025.
- Cited “deep concern” for Nigeria’s economic and security crises.
- Described APC governance as driven by propaganda and loyalty.
- Said decision was based on patriotism, not ambition or anger.
- Blamed the current administration for abandoning real governance.
- Endorsed ADC’s vision of justice, inclusion, and national renewal.
- Urged Nigerians to rise above fear and reclaim the country.
From Silence to Standpoint: Malami’s defection signals a notable shift among northern elites, adding weight to the ADC-led coalition’s momentum. With high-profile exits from APC and PDP, the road to 2027 may be defined less by loyalty and more by urgency.
