Former Minister of State for Education, Hon. Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba, has thrown his hat into the ring for the 2027 Presidential election on the African Democratic Congress (ADC) platform. He believes Nigeria needs leaders with clear policies, negotiation skills, and grassroots support, rather than just talk.
Nwajiuba, a seasoned lawyer and former Chairman of TETFund’s Board of Trustees, has a strong background in governance and public finance, having served in the legislature, executive, and key national institutions. His campaign is expected to focus on education reform, economic stabilization, and rebuilding trust in government.
His entry into the race adds a new dynamic to the presidential contest, with smaller parties looking to offer alternative leadership options. Nwajiuba’s approach is centered on “competence-first” leadership, emphasizing experience, policy depth, and institutional knowledge.
He joins a growing list of aspirants shaping the national conversation ahead of the election, with debates on competence, experience, and inclusive governance gaining traction
