The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has mobilised 40,000 youths in Sokoto State as part of its preparations for the 2027 general elections, according to a report by The Guardian Nigeria. The party said the mobilisation was aimed at strengthening its grassroots structure and engaging young people in the political process.
Sokoto State, located in Nigeria's North-West geopolitical zone, has a predominantly young population. Youth mobilisation has become a key strategy for political parties ahead of the 2027 polls, in which Nigerians are expected to elect a president, state governors, and members of the National Assembly.
The ADC is one of Nigeria's registered political parties. The 2027 general elections are scheduled to be held across the country, though the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has yet to release the final timetable and schedule of activities.
Details of the Sokoto mobilisation, including the specific venues, dates, and the identities of the party officials involved, were not available in the source report. The ADC has not issued a public statement confirming the figure independently.
