<p>Former Senate President Senator David Mark has officially assumed the role of Interim National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), signaling the beginning of a major transition within the party’s national leadership.</p><div class="hLJXQkkq" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>The announcement, confirmed by party insiders on Wednesday, marks a pivotal moment for the ADC as it seeks to reposition itself ahead of the 2027 general elections. Senator Mark, a seasoned statesman and one of Nigeria’s longest-serving Senate Presidents, is expected to bring stability, experience, and renewed strategic direction to the party.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>The leadership transition comes amid ongoing efforts by a coalition of political stakeholders to restructure the party’s internal framework and broaden its national appeal. The ADC, which has struggled to gain significant traction in recent election cycles, is now banking on Senator Mark’s political pedigree to unify its ranks and attract new supporters.</p>

<p>A party source who spoke on condition of anonymity said, “This is a turning point for the ADC. Senator David Mark’s emergence as interim chairman is not just symbolic—it’s strategic. He brings credibility, national recognition, and a wealth of experience that can help reposition the party as a serious contender.”</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>Though Senator Mark has yet to make a formal public statement, insiders suggest his immediate priorities will include:</p>

</div>

<p>&#8211; Reconciliation of aggrieved party factions<br />
&#8211; Strengthening the party’s grassroots structures<br />
&#8211; Building alliances with other political movements<br />
&#8211; Preparing a roadmap for the party’s national convention</p>
<p>Political analysts believe his leadership could also attract disillusioned members from other major parties, especially those seeking a credible third-force alternative.</p>
<p>Senator Mark’s return to the political spotlight is expected to shake up Nigeria’s opposition dynamics. With the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) dominating the scene, the ADC’s move could signal the rise of a more formidable third bloc.</p>
<p>“This is a bold move,” said political analyst Dr. Amina Yusuf. “If the ADC can harness Senator Mark’s influence and build a strong coalition, it could change the narrative heading into 2027.”</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>David Alechenu Bonaventure Mark served as President of the Nigerian Senate from 2007 to 2015 and was a senator for Benue South for two decades. A retired Brigadier General, he is widely respected for his legislative acumen and calm leadership style.</p>
