Lagos APC: We won’t jump to conclusions over NDC attack

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) says it will not jump to conclusions or make assumptions over the disruption of a political gathering organised by the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) in Ikeja, the state capital.

The Lagos APC spokesman, Seye Oladejo, said this on Friday, November 13, 2026, while responding  to questions on the alleged attack on NDC members and the party’s denial of involvement in the incident.

Oladejo said the APC was a party governed by the principles of law and order and would not engage in speculative conclusions over the circumstances surrounding the incident.

“We’re a party governed by law and order. However, we won’t jump the gun and embark on needless assumptions,” Oladejo said.

He, however, urged Nigerians not to overlook what he described as recent threats by opposition political parties to unleash mayhem in Lagos State.

The Lagos APC spokesperson said: “The threats to unleash mayhem by the opposition parties recently should not be lost on the public.

“Our democracy cannot thrive on anarchy and disorderly conducts.”

Oladejo said the APC remained committed to democratic principles, peaceful political engagement and respect for the rule of law.

Oladejo stressed that political competition should not be allowed to degenerate into violence, intimidation or activities capable of undermining democratic institutions.

The Lagos APC spokesman urged political parties and their supporters to exercise restraint and conduct their activities within the ambit of the law, particularly as political activities ahead of the 2027 general election gathered momentum.
