The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has condemned the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) over the disputed passage of the Electoral Act Amendment Bill by the National Assembly.
Responding on Wednesday, ADC spokesperson Bolaji Abdullahi accused the APC of weakening Nigeria’s democracy.
In a post on X, Abdullahi described the ruling party’s actions as a troubling display of impunity and warned that it must not be allowed to become “the death of our democracy.”
He alleged that despite having almost all state governors under its control, the APC was still apprehensive about conducting a free and fair election.
He, however, noted that the situation isn’t new and Nigerians would resist any form of tyranny.
“With this level of impunity, we pray that the APC does not become the death of our democracy.
“Almost all the governors are in their party, yet they are afraid of a free and fair election. But Nigerians will never surrender to tyranny. We have seen this before,” he said.
