The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has expressed concern over allegations of a plot to arrest Rauf Aregbesola, the National Secretary of the party, ahead of the Osun State election. ADC's National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, made these allegations in a statement on Wednesday. Abdullahi pointed out that the current administration has increasingly used intimidation, harassment, and misuse of state institutions against the opposition.
He emphasized that any arrest would likely be to prevent Aregbesola from leading and coordinating the party's election activities. The ADC has put the Federal Government and security agencies on notice, warning that whatever happens during and after the election will be judged by the actions taken now. Abdullahi urged the APC Federal Government to avoid actions that could cause a crisis in Osun State, as Nigeria is still a democracy.
