According to Punch, on Tuesday 21 April, 2026, according to Ralph Nwosu, the original and first National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress, the party had problems within before these recent events, which he said were caused by Nafi’u Bala and Dumebi Kachikwu.
In response to a question about whether Bala attended any of the meetings he listed, he said that Bala was actively participating and never missed a meeting, using data from sources like as the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to back up his claim.
He elaborated by saying that one of the documents submitted by Bala in court was an official certificate from INEC, which, in his opinion, proved that Bala had been present during the entire process.
In addition, he asserted that INEC had evident documentation of his participation; nevertheless, he also mentioned that there were new rumours indicating that INEC had changed its stance following Bala’s addition of further disputes.
Absolutely, without a doubt. None of the meetings were skipped by him. You can find the records. You can find INEC records there. The one that INEC drafted was one of the documents brought in court when Bala went there to make a claim.
He said, “INEC presented a case against Bala that it was there and that Bala participated in everything. INEC had their record. But recently, we heard that INEC had gone back on what they presented when Bala started this troublesome thing.”
