The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has cautioned Nigerians against embracing political coalitions it described as lacking depth, structure, and purpose, warning that such alliances are often driven by ambition rather than genuine national interest.

The party’s spokesperson, Seye Oladejo, issued the warning in a statement on Friday, responding to the recent coalition formed by the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and several political groups.

Oladejo criticised the coalition as “a gathering of political journeymen with no clear agenda, no ideological identity, and no electoral value.” He argued that it lacks grassroots support, credibility, and a coherent policy direction.

“The ADC’s attempt to reposition itself is nothing more than recycled rhetoric,” he said. “Such alliances are often formed by disgruntled politicians seeking shortcuts to power rather than engaging meaningfully with the Nigerian people.”

The APC further accused members of the coalition of “political bigamy,” alleging that many of them still maintain membership in their former parties while presenting themselves as part of a new movement. This, the party said, is a deliberate attempt to mislead the public.

It dismissed the coalition’s relevance, describing it as a distraction with a limited shelf life. “The APC government will not be sidetracked by political rabble-rousers,” the statement read.

Reaffirming its commitment to governance, the APC said: “We are irrevocably committed to delivering on our social contract. The future of this country lies in tested leadership, credible policies, and a united national direction—none of which the ADC offers.”
