Atiku Abubakar, a former vice president, has warned the All Progressives Congress (APC) in power against employing security forces to silence opposition party members.
Dissenting voices are essential for democracy and effective government, according to Abubakar in a statement published on platform X on Monday.
“The ruling APC must refrain from any attempts to use our security agencies to harass or illegally detain any member or voice of the political opposition — and this call is not here limited to only members of my political party, but indeed all opposition voices including the many individuals across the internet who speak up only to seek a better country,” the former vice president wrote.
