Speaking at a political gathering, the governor mocked the opposition’s repeated claims that the APC would be “sent packing,” asking rhetorically, “The APC will be sent packing to where?”
Governor Sule argued that the Labour Party (LP) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are still grappling with leadership disputes, defections, and internal divisions, which he said weaken their credibility as alternatives.
According to him, a party seeking to take over power must first demonstrate stability, unity, and a clear direction—qualities he believes are currently lacking within the opposition ranks.

He maintained that the APC, despite facing criticism over economic hardship and governance challenges, remains the most structured political platform in the country.
Sule pointed to what he described as the party’s nationwide presence and organizational strength as key factors that continue to keep it competitive.
“You cannot convince Nigerians you are ready to lead when you cannot manage your own house,” he said.
The governor’s comments come amid ongoing political realignments, court battles, and factional disagreements within major opposition parties.
Analysts note that the PDP has faced prolonged leadership wrangles, while the LP has also experienced internal disputes following the last general elections.
Sule suggested that these issues distract the opposition from presenting policy-based alternatives to voters.
Supporters of the opposition, however, argue that internal disagreements are part of democratic politics and do not diminish their capacity to challenge the ruling party.
They insist that public dissatisfaction over economic conditions, inflation, and insecurity could still shape future electoral outcomes, regardless of party structures.
