<p>By Yusuf Danjuma Yunusa</p>
<p>The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has officially selected former Rivers State Governor and former Minister of Transportation, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, as its vice-presidential candidate for the 2027 general election, pairing him with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.</p>
<p>The announcement, made today in the capital, puts to rest days of speculation about whether he would emerge as Atiku&#8217;s running mate after losing the party&#8217;s presidential primary to the former vice president.</p>

<p>ADC National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, said Amaechi&#8217;s emergence followed &#8220;extensive consultations&#8221; within the party and reflected his strong performance as runner-up in the party&#8217;s presidential primaries, as well as his &#8220;track records of service to his State and the country.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to the party&#8217;s full statement, Amaechi&#8217;s experience across both the legislative and executive arms of government — including as former Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, two-term Governor of Rivers State, and former Minister of Transportation — makes him &#8220;uniquely qualified&#8221; to complement Atiku&#8217;s leadership.</p>

<p>The ADC described the proposed partnership as &#8220;more than a political alliance,&#8221; calling it &#8220;the coming together of two tested statesmen with the experience, national reach, and leadership capacity required to rescue Nigeria.&#8221;</p>
<p>The party further argued that the Atiku-Amaechi ticket &#8220;bridges regions, generations, and political traditions,&#8221; positioning itself as &#8220;a credible and compelling alternative capable of restoring confidence in government.&#8221;</p>
