By EZEKIEL OBI, Abuja-
African Democratic Congress (ADC) has raised the alarm over a desperate plot to undermine and destabilize the growing opposition coalition in Nigeria.
The party’s interim National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja.
He said former ADC state chairmen and key officials in the North-East and North-West were summoned to a secret meeting with top government officials.
Abdullahi described the move as an attempt to co-opt these individuals into a fabricated plot against the opposition coalition, adding that it was “not politics; this is outright sabotage.”
He said the motive was to sow confusion, delegitimize ADC’s new leadership, and derail its growing momentum as the face of the opposition.
“The coalition is an idea whose time has come,” Abdullahi declared, adding that the party belonged to all Nigerians tired of lies and hardship.
“It belongs to those who want to restore decency, vision, and justice to governance,” he said.
Abdullahi called on President Bola Tinubu to take note of the actions of some of his appointees and rein them in.
He further urged the President to prove to Nigerians that he remains committed to democratic principles.
“We will resist any attempt to impose one-party dictatorship by all democratic means,” Abdullahi vowed, emphasizing the party’s determination to defend democracy and good governance in Nigeria.
