ADC Accuses APC of Importing Rally Supporters in Kaduna

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of transporting supporters from various states to Kaduna for its presidential campaign rally, emphasizing that the ruling party is more focused on crowd size than the safety of participants. Phrank Shaibu, the Director of Strategic Communication for the ADC Presidential Campaign Council, responded to Dele Alake's claims that former vice-president Atiku Abubakar and the ADC were involved in a plot to discredit the APC rally through artificial intelligence manipulation.

Shaibu dismissed Alake's statement as a "desperate and hollow smokescreen" and demanded evidence to support the allegations. He highlighted the economic failures of the APC government, citing rising fuel prices, food inflation, and poverty statistics.

Shaibu also raised concerns about the safety of supporters transported from distant states, alleging they were left to sleep on the streets and questioning the necessity of protecting campaign billboards. He criticized the APC's campaign strategy, suggesting it undermines genuine nationwide support.
