Some protesters on Tuesday stormed the national secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC), grounded activities and insisted on seeing the National Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu. Some of the protesters accused Adamu of collecting bribes from certain politicians in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, to ensure that the opposition party wins the FCT again during the 2023 general elections. The protesters in their hundreds comprising of youths, women, men, were seen singing and dancing and with various inscriptions, such as “Oath of office can only be taken twice, APC FCT chairman, Abdul Malik Usman, has taken oath of office twice, it is impunity to keep him, “FCT Congress 2021 must be recognised, “FCT APC chairman must go for refusal to accept the new party executive of FCT", “We say no to party impunity of FCT, “National Chairman APC, do not condone impunity, “APC must not only preach equity and justice but must demonstrate equity and justice, ” and many others. They resisted all entreaties from the security agents while demanding the immediate removal of the FCT chairman of the party, Abdulmalik Usman, Daily Sun reports. “We want to see Adamu. He must stop the impunity by ensuring that Abdulmalik is not sworn in the third time. If he fails to address us it means that he has collected money from the PDP so that APC will lose FCT again in the 2023 elections,” some of the protesters said.
