In a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, the party cited the recent abduction of 40 residents in Zamfara, fresh attacks in Benue, and the kidnapping of Kebbi High Court Judge Faruku Hassan Bunza as evidence that insecurity remains widespread. The ADC described Tinubu as 'a professional statement-maker' on security issues and called for equal attention to all victims.
