ADC Refutes APC Claims of Unpaid Salaries, Demands Evidence — The Abuja Times Newsroom

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has firmly rejected accusations from the All Progressives Congress (APC) that it has failed to pay its workers for over a year. In a recent statement, the ADC challenged the ruling party to present concrete evidence to support their allegations, which they described as unfounded and politically motivated.

According to the ADC, the claims made by the APC campaign council are not only misleading but also serve to distract the public from pressing national issues. The party emphasized its commitment to the welfare of its employees and insisted that all salaries are current and duly paid.

“We call on the APC to stop spreading falsehoods and focus on their governance responsibilities. Our workers are our priority, and we will not allow anyone to tarnish our reputation with baseless accusations,”

the ADC spokesperson stated during a press conference. This exchange of allegations highlights the increasing political rivalry as preparations intensify for upcoming elections in Nigeria.

The ADC's rebuttal comes amidst a backdrop of economic challenges and public sector wage disputes, making the issue of workers' salaries a sensitive topic in Nigerian politics. As the political landscape evolves, both parties are likely to continue leveraging such narratives to gain public support.
