The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has called on the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to stop using personal attacks as a means to distract from the failures of the Tinubu administration. The ADC emphasized that the APC has a duty to address the concerns of the Nigerian people.
In a statement signed by Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the ADC’s National Publicity Secretary, the party criticised the APC for acting like an opposition party.
The ADC challenged the APC to clarify to Nigerians why they continue to face severe insecurity, economic decline, and national disunity.
Additionally, the ADC accused the ruling party of engaging in a petty campaign against itself and its leaders, particularly targeting former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai.
According to the national coalition movement, “the APC has chosen distraction over substance, insults over introspection, and propaganda over performance.
‘’But we must remind them that while words can be manipulated, the facts on ground cannot.’’
Abdullahi noted that at this point, Nigerians want answers to insecurity, hunger, joblessness, and despair.
It wondered why the ruling is ignoring all this, choosing to attack those asking the hard questions.
“It is unfortunate that a party that held the presidency, controlled both chambers of the National Assembly, and commanded the vast resources of the Nigerian state still behaved as if it was in opposition,” the statement added.
