"Will SE give the same votes to Obi as VP? Will Christian give the same votes as VP? Will Northerners give the same vote to Obi as if he was atiku if Atiku is not on the ticket? Does Amaechi have any electoral value? Aside from NW, where else is ADC gaining converts?"

Recall that Mallam Nasir El-Rufai appeared before the Kaduna State High Court as trial proceedings continued over fraud and abuse of office allegations.
El-Rufai was heard discussing the upcoming ADC national convention, signalling continued political involvement amid his trial.
The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) pursued multiple charges against him as his bail hearing was fixed for April 14, 2026.
Supreme Court takes action on ADC crisis
Meanwhile, Legit.ng also reported that the Supreme Court was scheduled to hear the appeal filed by the David Mark-led faction of the ADC against Nafiu Bala's group of the opposition party.
In the appeal filed by the former Senate president, the factional ADC leader is asking the Supreme Court to grant an order to stay execution of the Court of Appeal's ruling on March 12, 2026.
Mark is also asking the Supreme Court for two more injunctions amid the leadership crisis rocking the ADC, particularly after INEC's action on the party.
