The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has warned Nigerians, party members, and supporters to be cautious of fraudulent online links, websites, and social media accounts falsely claiming to offer the party’s official membership registration.
The party clarified that no official ADC membership registration platform is currently open, urging the public to disregard any circulating links.
The warning was issued in a statement shared on X by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, on Sunday.
“At this time, ADC has not launched any public online membership registration platform. The party is working on an official registration and verification system, which will be formally announced through verified party channels in due course,” the statement read.
The party also cautioned that it would never request payments or sensitive personal information through unofficial links, WhatsApp messages, direct messages, or third-party websites.
Abdullahi advised the public:
“Do not click on suspicious or unverified links. Do not share unconfirmed registration messages. Do not submit personal information, including your name, phone number, PVC details, BVN, or payment details, to any unverified platform. Report any suspicious links through official ADC communication channels.”
The ADC affirmed that all legitimate announcements, including the launch of its official membership registration system, will only be communicated through verified party platforms and formal statements from the leadership.
The alert comes amid recurring online scams targeting the party, especially as it prepares for the 2027 elections.
In July 2025, ADC disowned a fake list of state chairmen and cautioned against unauthorised online registration platforms designed to defraud Nigerians.
Abdullahi reiterated that such schemes are attempts to swindle unsuspecting individuals and advised verification through credible party sources, including his own official account.
