Adamawa High Court Suspends ADC State Congresses

A High Court in Adamawa State has ordered the suspension of the congresses planned in the state by the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

The congresses were scheduled to commence on Thursday, April 9, 2026.

The suspension order was issued by Justice Ahmed Isah of High Court No. 6, pending the determination of a case before the court.

The case has been fixed for hearing on Wednesday, April 15.

It was instituted by the state chairman of the party, Yohanna Shehu, who is protesting his alleged exclusion from the congress planning process.

A controversial leadership organ is coordinating the planning, the state transition committee of the ADC, led by Sadiq Dasin.
