The National Publicity Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Bolaji Abdullahi, has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of targeting his party despite its dominant political position.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Abdullahi said the ADC remains calm and focused, describing the ruling party as unsettled.
“We in the ADC are calm because we know what we are doing, but they, the APC, are the ones; after having about 34 governors in their camp and almost all the National Assembly, they are still panicking. They are still sponsoring court cases against the ADC,” he said.
He alleged that the APC frequently mentions the ADC in its political discourse while simultaneously trying to undermine the party.
“They can’t have a conversation without talking about the ADC. They say ADC is comatose, it is this or that, instigating our members against us. Those who can barely afford to feed are now hiring Senior Advocates of Nigeria, and we say it just doesn’t add up,” Abdullahi added.
The ADC spokesman also dismissed concerns about the party’s viability, assuring that there is no legal or political risk in contesting elections on the ADC platform.
“It’s not legally and politically dangerous for anyone to run on the platform of the ADC,” he stated.
