The African Democratic Congress, ADC, has said that the Osun state governorship election scheduled for August 15, 2026, is a do-or-die affair for the All Progressives Congress, APC.
National Publicity Secretary of the party, Bolaji Abdullahi made this allegation on Wednesday while fielding questions in an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Prime Time’.
He said the ‘go and kill them’ statement by the lawmaker representing Osun East Senatorial District, Francis Fadahunsi, was not just a metaphor.
Fadahunsi was spotted in a video where he told his supporters to kill any member of the Accord Party they see ahead of the August 15, 2026 governorship election in the state.
However, the lawmaker later claimed he was quoted out of context, stressing that he meant defeating the Accord Party and not killing its members.
Reacting, the ADC spokesman said, “the Osun election is a do-or-die affair to the APC. Senator Fadahunsi’s ‘go and kill them’ comment was not a metaphor.
“I don’t blame the senator for saying what he said; I blame the president because he got his authorisation from the president.
“President Tinubu has said all is fair in politics, and that means you can kill, steal, or do whatever it takes to deliver victory.”
