Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Bauchi State has commenced moves to reconcile aggrieved members following the resolution of its prolonged leadership crisis by the court.<\/p>\n

The crisis, which pitted rival factions against each other over control of the party structure was recently settled by a High Court ruling that affirmed Hassan Haruna as the legitimate state chairman.<\/p>\n

Responding, the party set up a reconciliation committee to unite members and restore cohesion ahead of future political activities.<\/p>\n

Deputy State Publicity Secretary, Arsanu Guyaba, who spoke to journalists on Thursday, described the judgment as a turning point, saying it provides both legal backing and a pathway to stability within the party.<\/p>\n

He disclosed that the leadership has extended olive branches to dissenting members, urging them to return and work collectively to reposition the ADC.<\/p>\n

Guyaba added that the party is now focusing on strengthening its internal structures and mobilising support in preparation for the 2027 general elections.<\/p>\n

He noted that while the opposing faction may still explore legal options, the party remains committed to dialogue and peaceful resolution of differences.<\/p>\n

He also commended the national leadership of the ADC for its support and non-interference, allowing the state chapter to resolve its internal issues.<\/p>\n

With reconciliation efforts ongoing, the party says it is shifting attention to grassroots mobilisation and strategic positioning, expressing optimism about its performance in the next electoral cycle.<\/p>\n
