The event, scheduled to hold at the Wells Carlton Hotel and Apartments in Asokoro, Abuja, was expected to formally introduce the ADC as the platform to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress in the 2027 general elections.

However, organisers were informed in the morning that the hotel would no longer host the event due to an unspecified “internal compliance matter.”

A screenshot of the hotel’s message, posted on by media personality and politician Dele Momodu, on his social media page, stated, “Dear Esteemed Patron, Thank you once again for choosing the Wells Carlton Hotel and Apartments

“We sincerely regret to inform you that due to an internal compliance matter that has just come to our attention, we are unable to proceed with hosting your scheduled event.
“We are fully aware that the event is less than 24 hours away, and we deeply apologise for the timing and inconvenience this may cause.”


The sudden cancellation has drawn sharp reactions from opposition figures, with Momodu alleging political interference.
