The African Democratic Congress, ADC, has accused the All Progressives Congress, APC, of parading imaginary defectors. This comes after the ruling party claimed that House of Assembly candidates from Jigawa, Plateau, Taraba and Zamfara States had defected to its platform.
Speaking via a press statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the ADC challenged the APC to produce evidence of the political credentials it attributed to the alleged defectors.
Stressing that the people presented by the APC are neither its candidates nor leaders, the opposition party insisted that the ruling party simply attached ADC identities to individuals who have no such standing in the party.
His words, “The APC cannot assemble random individuals at its secretariat, confer imaginary ADC credentials on them and then announce their defection.
These people are not our candidates.
Having invented ADC credentials for its guests, the APC has supplied an equally imaginative account of its performance over the past few years.
The APC should state the ADC offices these individuals supposedly held, the constituencies they represented as our candidates and when they held those positions.
Nigerians are asking for evidence of better lives; the APC is manufacturing photographs and congratulating itself.”
