APC Critiques ADC for Misinterpreting Tinubu's Remarks

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has condemned the African Democratic Congress (ADC) for allegedly misinterpreting President Bola Tinubu's statement that "democracy is a game." APC spokesman Mogaji Sey Oladejo accused the ADC of deliberately twisting the comment, which he described as a simple metaphor highlighting the competitive nature of democratic politics. He emphasized that democracy operates under rules and strategies that require political actors to mobilize support within an established framework.

Oladejo expressed surprise and amusement at the ADC's choice to distort the comment rather than engage in substantive political debate. He characterized the ADC's actions as a public stunt aimed at gaining social media attention, lacking genuine grassroots engagement and credible political leadership.

The APC urged the ADC to focus on strengthening its political structure and presenting credible alternatives to voters instead of creating unnecessary controversy. The statement reiterated the APC's commitment to democratic principles, rule of law, and respect for the will of the people.
