You dismantle Buhari’s legacies now pretend as chief mourners – ADC knocks APC

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Federal Government of attempting to dismantle the legacy of former President Muhammadu Buhari over the past two years.

In a statement issued on Monday by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the ADC alleged that despite repeated criticism of Buhari’s administration, the APC and government officials are now presenting themselves as chief mourners following the former President’s death.

“The party and the government that had done everything in the last two years to tarnish his records, dismantle his legacies, and blame him for every one of their failings, are now posturing as the chief mourners at his burial,” the statement read in part.

The ADC described the development as political hypocrisy and warned against attempts to gain politically from what it called a national tragedy. It also urged Buhari’s family and supporters to be cautious of what it termed political opportunism.

The party called on Nigerians to remember Buhari for his integrity, humility, and commitment to public service, stating that his legacy should serve as a benchmark for leadership in the country.
