Let $\mathcal{E}$ be an ample vector bundle of rank $r$ on a projective variety $X$ with only log-terminal singularities. We consider the nefness of adjoint divisors ${{K}_{X}}\,+\,\left( t-r \right)\,\det \,\mathcal{E}$ when $t\,\ge \,\dim\,X$ and $t\,>\,r$. As an application, we classify pairs $\left( X,\,\mathcal{E} \right)$ with ${{c}_{r}}$-sectional genus zero.
