The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of approaching the upcoming Osun State governorship election on August 15, 2026, as a “do-or-die affair.”
Speaking on Arise Television’s Prime Time on Wednesday, ADC National Publicity Secretary Bolaji Abdullahi referenced the controversial remarks made by Senator Francis Fadahunsi, who was caught on video urging supporters to “kill Accord Party members” ahead of the poll.
Although Fadahunsi later claimed he was quoted out of context, insisting he meant “defeat” rather than “kill,” Abdullahi dismissed the explanation, arguing the statement reflected the APC’s desperation.“
The Osun election is a do-or-die affair to the APC. Senator Fadahunsi’s ‘go and kill them’ comment was not a metaphor,” Abdullahi said.
He further alleged that the senator’s remarks had tacit approval from President Bola Tinubu, claiming:
“President Tinubu has said all is fair in politics, and that means you can kill, steal, or do whatever it takes to deliver victory.”
The comments add to mounting tension ahead of Saturday’s election, which has already been marred by accusations of violence and intimidation.
