Africa-Press – Nigeria. Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule, has said the African Democratic Congress, ADC, does not pose any threat to the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the run-up to the 2027 general elections.
Sule said since the APC is currently in charge of 31 states in the federation, the ruling party has no reason to worry about the ADC.
He spoke on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
The governor said, “At one point, they said the PDP is the strongest opposition to our party, so now it is the ADC.
“You will keep hearing about this goalpost moving forward. There’s no problem whatsoever with our party.
“A party that controls 31 states can’t really be worried about another party that doesn’t control just one state.”
The Nasarawa governor also backed the idea of state policing as a remedy for insecurity.
While recognizing the severity of the security challenges facing the country, Sule stated that decentralized policing would offer an effective solution.
He said, “When we sat down at the NEC level to talk, I think 35 out of 37 signed up for state policing. We agreed to go on with it.
“I think it’s the parameter because it needs to be part of changing the law, it needs to go to the National Assembly, and it also needs to go to all the state assemblies.
“I think it’s just the process that is taking time, but as far as we are concerned, I think every state believes strongly in state policing and Nasarawa is one of them.”
