PDP Accuses APC of Infiltrating Political Parties Ahead of 2027 Elections

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) in Nigeria has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of infiltrating all political parties, stifling free speech, and targeting opposition parties in preparation for the 2027 elections. The PDP raised concerns about a repressive climate of dissent in Nigeria, with Amnesty International also highlighting the growing suppression of opposition voices.

Ini Ememobong, the PDP's National Public Secretary, commended Amnesty International for addressing longstanding concerns dismissed as partisan rhetoric by the APC, which allegedly aims to ensure uncontested elections in 2027.
