2027: Young Nigerians Top List of ADC NWC Appointments
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has once again taken a bold step toward generational leadership renewal with the appointment of several young Nigerians into its newly reconstituted National Working Committee (NWC), ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Among the most notable appointments is that of Mrs. Jackie Wayas, who was confirmed as the Deputy National Publicity Secretary during the party’s 99th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting. Her inclusion marks a significant moment for youth and gender representation in the national leadership of a major political party.

In a statement following the NEC meeting, the party emphasized its commitment to “progressive inclusion and strategic leadership realignment” as part of its preparations for the 2027 electoral cycle.
