The African Democratic Congress says it has uploaded the particulars of its presidential and vice-presidential candidates to INEC’s nomination portal.

The party said the uploaded candidates were former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, its presidential candidate, and former transport minister Rotimi Amaechi, its vice-presidential candidate.

ADC’s spokesman, Bolaji Abdullahi, announced the development on Tuesday, describing it as another significant step in preparations for the general elections.

“We are pleased to announce the successful upload of the names and particulars of our presidential and vice-presidential candidates to the INEC nomination portal,” Mr Abdullahi stated.

This, he said, underscores ADC’s commitment to offering Nigerians a credible alternative anchored on competence, unity, and national renewal.
