You Do Not Have What It Takes To Be A Threat To Us – APC Fires Back At ADC Over Tinubu ‘Witch-Hunt’ Claims

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has berated the African Democratic Congress (ADC) over allegations that President Bola Tinubu is after opposition leaders in the North East and North West to weaken the coalition gearing up to challenge him in the upcoming poll.

Naijaonpoint reports that the ADC, through a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, on Monday, accused President Tinubu’s administration of intentionally going after its northern leaders to weaken the emerging opposition coalition.

However, speaking to Punch, APC Director of Publicity Bala Ibrahim, urged Nigerians to disregard any statements from the ADC spokesman, insisting that he has a reputation for lying.

Ibrahim recalled that Abdullahi once admitted he couldn’t serve as a party’s Publicity Secretary without lying.

He labelled Abdullahi a habitual liar and maintained that the APC does not see the ADC as a threat.

According to him, “Well, I think for Bolaji Abdullahi to make such sweeping statements, there is the need for him to revisit his conscience and tell Nigerians that he is a repentant spokesperson.

“This is the same Bolaji Abdullahi that said the most difficult job he had done in his life was being the spokesperson of the APC, because, according to him, you cannot do the job without lying. Is he saying now that he has repented from lying, or is he still lying?

“We came on board the publicity department of the APC after he left, and we have not seen anywhere where the party has a creed that directs its spokesperson to lie. So, if Bolaji lied when he was the spokesperson of the APC, he did that out of his lying instinct, not the party’s instinct.

“So, I leave Nigerians with this: the same person who said he trained to lie, or he was trained to lie, what he is doing now is nothing but what he admitted to doing, lying.”

The APC Publicity Secretary stated that the ADC has been in disarray since the day it was unveiled.

“So, the ADC leaders are a bunch of liars and that they are not a threat to APC. They cannot be, because they don’t have what it takes to be a threat to the ruling APC. You see, this is a coalition that is already in disarray. They are not united. They’re having problems. People came to the coalition meeting under false pretext, under false invitation.

“Some were told it was going to be a PDP caucus meeting, that’s why they were there. Some said they were invited for a different purpose, only for them to be photographed and flashed across various media houses as members of the coalition and they are not.”
