The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has criticised the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) over the passage of the controversial Electoral Act Amendment Bill by the National Assembly.
According to the ADC, in a statement by its spokesperson, Bolaji Abdullahi, the APC is undermining the democracy of Nigeria.
In the post on X, the ADC indicated that the impunity of the APC could be the death of Nigeria's 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.
According to him, Nigerians would resist any form of tyranny, adding that the country had experienced similar situations in the past.
He said: “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.”
