Drama Unleashed! APC Labels ADC ‘IDP Camp For Failed Politicians’ In Fiery Response

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has fiercely criticized the African Democratic Congress (ADC), labeling it a “party of internally displaced politicians” over its condemnation of President Bola Tinubu’s handling of the funeral of former President Muhammadu Buhari.

In a statement on Saturday, APC said the ADC’s outburst over the state burial of the late former president reflects not only political desperation but also a disturbing lack of empathy and basic human decency.

APC spokesman, Felix Morka, accused the ADC of using a national moment of mourning to gain political attention, calling the party’s statement “spooky, unconscionable, and disgraceful.”

“For a party that begrudges the dead, it surely shows contempt for the living,” the APC said.

The party further condemned the ADC’s allegation that the Tinubu-led government was exploiting Buhari’s death for political gain. APC maintained that the dignified burial and support extended to the late president’s family were in line with state customs and a reflection of national gratitude.

“What was President Tinubu supposed to do? Deny Buhari a befitting burial? Ignore a grieving family? The ADC’s reaction shows it has become a dump site for political outcasts willing to say anything for relevance,” the statement added.

The APC stressed that Buhari served the nation with distinction as a soldier, military leader, and two-term democratic president, and deserved the honor he received in death.

Calling for caution, APC warned Nigerians to remain vigilant against “a party like the ADC,” which it described as “a band of political marauders peddling falsehoods in the name of opposition.”
