The Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu, Femi Gbajabiamila, has said that the adoption of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) by the opposition coalition is a welcome development and good for democracy, and will prevent Nigeria from becoming a one-party state.

“It’s a welcome development with the coalition. It’s not the first time we’re seeing this. It’s a welcome development. In every democracy, we must have some level of opposition otherwise we’ll run into a one-party state. But I’m not sure where it would go,” he said.

Earlier this month, leaders of the coalition convened at the Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja, where they formally adopted the ADC as their platform to challenge the APC in 2027.
