By the AFREEQUE newsroom, based on Leadership
Senator Ali Ndume, who represents the Borno South district, accuses the ADC campaign council of recruiting thugs from outside to disrupt an APC rally in Gwoza on 6 November. The opposition party rejects the accusation and asks the senator to produce evidence, while he claims no ADC structure exists in the locality.
Senator Ali Ndume, representing the Borno South senatorial district, accuses the ADC of having brought in individuals from outside Gwoza to disrupt an APC political rally in that community in Borno State. He made the accusation after the incident on Friday 6 November 2026, according to Leadership.
Ndume claims the ADC has no visible political structure in Gwoza, citing the absence of an office, campaign posters and a known local presence. He called on residents to prevent political rivalries from causing violence in the community, according to Leadership.
The ADC's director of communication in Borno State, Bukar-Bukar Petrol, rejected the accusation and said the ADC campaign council dissociated itself from any act likely to compromise peace and security in Gwoza or elsewhere in the State. He reacted on Monday after being informed of Ndume's accusations, according to Leadership.
