ADC denies disrupting APC rally in Borno, challenges Ndume to provide evidence

The African Democratic Congress, ADC, Campaign Council in Borno State has denied allegations that it hired political thugs to disrupt an All Progressives Congress, APC, rally in Gwoza Local Government Area of the state.

The Director of Communications of the ADC Campaign Council, Bukar Bukar-Petrol, made the denial in an interview with MEDIA TODAY on Monday in Maiduguri.

Bukar-Petrol said the party’s engagements with residents during its recent visits to communities in Gwoza were peaceful and conducted in the spirit of democratic participation.

He said the council was reacting to allegations made by Senator Ali Ndume, representing Borno South Senatorial District, accusing the ADC of disrupting an APC rally in Gwoza on Friday, November 6, 2026.
