Transcorp Hilton Abuja has withdrawn its services as the host venue for the national convention of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), which was scheduled to take place on 14 April 2026.
The abrupt decision, conveyed to the party mere days before the event, has created significant logistical challenges for the organisers.The ADC serves as a prominent platform for a coalition of opposition leaders and stakeholders gearing up for Nigeria’s 2027 general elections.
According to statements from the party’s mobilisation wing, the cancellation notice arrived unexpectedly, compelling officials to urgently identify and secure an alternative location within Abuja.
No formal explanation has been issued by Transcorp Hilton regarding the reasons for the withdrawal, and the hotel has not released any public statement on the development.
The incident has prompted discussions among political observers concerning its potential impact on the party’s upcoming convention arrangements.
