A leading opposition figure in Sokoto State Ambassador Faruk Malami Yabo has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of undermining Nigeria’s democratic system through alleged political infiltration, suppression of opposition parties and attempts to impose what he described as a “one party dominance” across the country.
The former diplomat, who recently secured his party’s Senatorial ticket ahead of the 2027 elections, made the remarks while addressing journalists and supporters shortly after receiving widespread endorsements from stakeholders across the senatorial district.
He attributed the growing public support for his candidature to what he called the people’s desire for credible leadership, inclusive governance and a clear political vision for Sokoto State.
