A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Ladan Salihu, has said that the fear of the coalition party is the beginning of wisdom for the ruling party. He said that the posture of the APC and their attempts to cry foul whenever issues are raised about the agony of Nigerians is suspicious, adding that the ruling party is making it appear as if Nigerians are not suffering and that there is no endemic poverty in the country due to bad governance. He said that the Tinubu administration and the ruling political party have thrown all their big guns at ADC, even going to court through their surrogates and sponsored actors to suggest that ADC should be deregistered. “Well, let me say that we expect to hear a lot of literature, a lot of prose from the minders of a failing government. They try to subsidize the truth, to make it look like Nigerians are not suffering, to make it look like there is no endemic poverty in the land due to selective bad governance and misgovernance, and to suggest that Nigeria is getting better by the day. “Look, the fear of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, is the beginning of wisdom for the APC. That is why they have raised all the guns against our party. They run to court through their surrogates and sponsored actors to suggest that ADC should be deregistered. “And then, as an afterthought, they now added the Zenith and Accord parties. Right before our eyes, the nation has seen nine senators defect from other parties to the ADC. “We have offices in all 36 states, not two-thirds of the states and we are consolidating all opposition forces to face this government, which has rendered this country’s democracy almost a laughing stock in the international community.”
