Human rights activist and public commentator, Mahdi Shehu, has warned that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) may soon face the same downfall that befell the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying power built on arrogance and injustice cannot last forever.
Shehu made the remark on Tuesday morning on his official X handle.
He drew a sharp comparison between the PDP’s fall from power after 16 years and what he described as the APC’s growing disregard for Nigerians.
According to him, “Whatever goes up must surely come down. Just as PDP rose and fell after its years of pride and betrayal, APC is now walking the same path.”
He recalled how the former PDP National Chairman, Vincent Ogbulafor, once boasted in 2008 that the PDP would rule Nigeria for 60 years, but the party later collapsed under its own weight.
“God showed them who truly owns power. The same will happen to APC if they don’t change,” he added.
Mahdi Shehu accused the APC of destroying institutions, intimidating citizens, and taking the country for granted.
He warned that such arrogance always ends in disgrace.
Quoting the Bible, he said, “Psalm 37:10 says, ‘A little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look for them, they will not be found.’
