The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of attempting to disrupt its planned opposition summit scheduled to hold in Ibadan, Oyo State.
In a statement posted on X on Saturday, Bolaji Abdullahi, the party’s national publicity secretary alleged that the APC was making efforts to frustrate the meeting slated 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 claimed the opposition had already faced similar challenges in Abuja, where earlier attempts to hold meetings were allegedly obstructed.
“After denying us the use of venues in Abuja, they now will not leave us alone to hold our meetings,” he said, adding that such actions reflect fear rather than confidence from the ruling party.
Abdullahi insisted that the alleged pressure would not stop the gathering, stressing that the opposition remained committed to its agenda.
“We will not be deterred, because we are on the side of the Nigerian people,” he added.
The ADC has repeatedly raised concerns over alleged interference in its political activities, including claims of last-minute attempts to stop previous party events.
