Nigerian Opposition Leaders Accuse Government of Plotting One-Party State

Opposition leaders in Nigeria, including Atiku Abubakar, David Mark, and Peter Obi, have raised concerns over the ruling APC's alleged efforts to weaken opposition parties and consolidate power, accusing President Bola Tinubu's administration of anti-democratic practices. The opposition claims that the EFCC is being used as a political tool to target rivals ahead of the 2023 elections.

Despite denials from the government, tensions are high as defections and accusations of political interference continue in states like Taraba. The opposition insists on upholding Nigeria's constitutional rights to political freedom and fair competition.
