The African Democratic Congress (ADC) on Saturday alleged that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is making moves to frustrate its planned opposition summit in Ibadan, Oyo State.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, made the claim in a post shared on X, where he said the party had uncovered plans to disrupt the gathering scheduled for April 25.
“We have uncovered plans by the ruling APC to disrupt the summit being held by the opposition parties in Ibadan,” Abdullahi said.
He added that the party would not back down.
He accused the ruling party of consistently creating obstacles for opposition activities, noting that earlier efforts to hold meetings in Abuja were also affected.
“After denying us the use of venues in Abuja, they now will not leave us alone to hold our meetings,” he stated.
“They say they are not scared, but they are behaving like people who are terrified.”
He maintained that despite the alleged pressure, the opposition would proceed with its plans.
“We will not be deterred, because we are on the side of the Nigerian people,” he added.
Recall that during an earlier ADC convention which held in Abuja, Abdullahi had also raised similar concerns over what he described as a last-minute attempt to stop the event.
