The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has taken drastic action against several of its members, including Hon. Leke Abejide and Nafiu Bala Gombe, by expelling them due to alleged breaches of the party's constitution and code of conduct.

This decision was made public through a statement released on Wednesday by the party's National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, which outlined the resolutions adopted at the party's National Convention on April 14, 2026, in Abuja.

The expulsions were given the green light following a thorough discussion by delegates at the convention, which was chaired by the party's National Chairman, David Mark.

A statement from the party explained that the expulsions were a direct result of the convention's resolutions, which were reached on Tuesday, April 14, 2026, at the Rainbow Event Centre in Garki, Abuja, and were aimed at individuals whose actions were deemed incompatible with the party's values and code of conduct.

Those who have been expelled from the party include Leke Abejide, Nafiu Bala Gombe, Kingsley Temitope Ogga, Don Norman Obinna, Kennedy Odion, Clement Ehigiator, Stella Chukwuma, Patrick Ambut, Johny Tovie Derek, Duke Dick, and Elias Adikwu.

The party's decision to expel these individuals came after a motion to discipline erring members was presented and ratified by delegates at the convention.

As a result of the expulsions, the affected individuals are no longer members of the African Democratic Congress, effective immediately, and are now free to join other political parties if they so choose.

The party has made it clear that the expelled members are at liberty to explore other political platforms, and any party that wishes to accept them is free to do so.

The ADC has reaffirmed its commitment to upholding internal discipline and democratic principles, stating that it will continue to adhere to the highest standards of accountability as it positions itself as a viable alternative in the political landscape.
