 Paul Ibe, Media Adviser to Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Releases Documents on ADC Leadership Resignations Amid Party Crisis


Paul Ibe, media adviser to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has shared documents purportedly showing the resignation of Hon. Nafiu Bala as Deputy National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the subsequent notification to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).


In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, April 1, 2026, Ibe presented two key documents to counter claims by Nafiu Bala, who has positioned himself as acting or factional chairman of the party. The first is a plain-paper resignation letter dated May 18, 2025, from Nafiu Bala, resigning his membership of the Ralph Nwosu-led National Working Committee (NWC) of the ADC. 


The second is a July 2025 letter on ADC letterhead notifying INEC of the mass resignation of the NWC to facilitate a leadership transition to the faction led by former Senate President Sen. David Mark. 


Ibe stated that the mass resignation of the exco, including Bala, on or around May 18, 2025, “paved the way for the Sen. David Mark-led NWC of the Coalition African Democratic Congress.” He urged INEC, under Chairman Joash Amupitan, not to align with what he described as the “anti-democratic agenda” of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) under President Bola Tinubu, warning that doing so would signal “the death knell of our democracy.” 


The documents surface amid an escalating leadership crisis in the ADC, which has become a platform for opposition coalition efforts ahead of the 2027 general elections. Rival factions have emerged: one associated with Sen. David Mark (and reportedly involving figures like Atiku Abubakar) following the reported resignation of former National Chairman Ralph Okey Nwosu and others in mid-2025, and another led by Nafiu Bala, who has denied resigning and claimed automatic succession under the party’s constitution.


Bala has previously described a circulating resignation letter attributed to him as fake or forged.
