The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has 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 on Saturday in a post on X, stating that the ADC 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 accused the ruling party of consistently creating obstacles for opposition activities, noting that previous attempts 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, adding, “They say they are not scared, but they are behaving like people who are terrified.”
Abdullahi maintained that despite the alleged interference, the opposition would proceed with its plans.
“We will not be deterred, because we are on the side of the Nigerian people,” he added.
The allegation follows similar concerns raised by Abdullahi during an earlier ADC convention in Abuja, where he claimed there were last-minute attempts to halt the event.
