As reported by TheCable, the ADC national publicity secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, made this known in a statement issued on Sunday, August 24, 2025

“Instead of the governors to rally around their beleaguered colleague to help stop the @rgy of killings, they chose to stage a political rally at the scene of mass murder, even if it meant trampling on the memory of the victims.”

Abdullahi criticised the PDP governors for grinning for the camera days after dozens were killed in the state.

He said the PDP governors in full ceremonial robes is totally out of place when the people are mourning.

“This act alone further underlines an important fact: neither the ruling APC nor the incurably afflicted PDP cares about the people and their suffering. They only care about power and politics.”
