Lagos APC: Peter Obi, ADC distracting Tinubu with “drama.”

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused opposition figures, including and the African Democratic Congress (ADC), of attempting to distract President Bola Tinubu with what it described as “unnecessary politicking and manufactured drama.”

This comes in response to the ADC urging former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi to decide whether he would join its coalition.

In a statement issued by APC Lagos spokesperson Seye Oladejo, the party warned the opposition to stop creating political tension when the country faces significant national challenges.

“At this critical moment, the opposition must stop distracting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu with needless politicking and manufactured drama,” Oladejo said.

He added that Tinubu remains focused on tackling economic, security, and governance issues, and that the APC will rely on its achievements across infrastructure, the economy, social investment, education, health, transport, and reforms when the time for electioneering comes.

Oladejo criticised opposition parties for what he called confusion and internal conflict, contrasting them with the APC’s focus on governance and national development.

“2027 is not for confused coalitions or political experiments. The ADC–Obi face-off is now a public confession of collapse,” he stated.

He also accused Peter Obi of adopting a political strategy based on opportunism rather than organisation.

“Obi has perfected a strange political posture—acting like a panther, waiting for distressed political parties so he can strike when desperation peaks,” Oladejo claimed.

He suggested that Obi is hoping for another “free presidential ticket,” similar to what he alleged happened in the 2023 elections.

“This is not political organisation; it is political lottery disguised as strategy,” he added.
