The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of deliberately using multiple court cases to weaken the opposition, claiming the goal is to ensure only President Bola Tinubu appears on the ballot in the 2027 elections.
National Publicity Secretary Bolaji Abdullahi made the allegation during an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time on Thursday. He was responding to a recent Federal High Court judgment that nullified the party’s leadership.
Abdullahi said the ADC has been overwhelmed by lawsuits since the opposition coalition was formed. “We have spent more time in the courts than we have spent on the campaign grounds, thanks to the ruling party,” he stated.
He accused the APC of being determined to stay in power at all costs and of trying to deny Nigerians a genuine democratic choice.According to him, the ruling party’s agenda is clear: to discourage opposition and leave voters with no real alternative in 2027.
He linked the latest court ruling to the large turnout at the ADC’s presidential campaign rally in Sokoto, suggesting the enthusiastic reception given to the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and his running mate, Rotimi Amaechi, caused concern within the Presidency.
