The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has lambasted the All Progressives Congress (APC) handling of the pervading insecurity in the country.
The Party, speaking through its Interim National Publicity Secretary, and spokesman of the opposition coalition, Bolaji Abdullahi, accused the ruling party of failure to tame the rising insecurity in the country.
He lamented that terrorists had taken over his farm lands, forcing him to abandon it.
Mr. Abdullahi, who disclosed this during an interview with journalists in Ilorin, appealed to Nigerians to rally behind the coalition to unseat the APC.
He said if elected, the ADC government will drastically reduce petroleum product price and also banish poverty in Nigeria.
He said: “The most important thing is that our job is half done with current hunger in the land. The major task we have is how to convince Nigerians that we are the alternative.
“What is clear is that Nigerians don’t want APC anymore. Any Nigerian that is suffering today knows that they don’t want APC anymore. It’s our duty to convince Nigerians that we represent the alternative.
“So a person that is hungry knows he doesn’t want to continue to be hungry. A person that can’t afford to pay hospital bills knows that he doesn’t want to continue. So, we don’t have any problems convincing Nigerians that they are suffering.
“We only have a challenge convincing Nigerians that we are different and that we are going to represent the alternative.
“Why we created ADC was that this current administration has increased the suffering of Nigerians as a result of its catastrophic policies and how they increased fuel price, the vulcaniser that needs fuel for his tyre pumping machine knows how much effect it is having on him now.
“Parents sending their children to school know how much they give their children to school to eat. N5,000 now is not up to the N500 before APC came on board. And they caused everything.
“Nigerians are no more interested in them anymore, and want to vote another party. Look at the way they scattered other parties, including PDP, SDP, ANPP, LP. They ruptured them all.
“This step they took was what made dignified politicians come together to create ADC. We mustn’t let those people that have turned the country into chaos continue to ruin Nigeria, that was why we went to ADC.
