The African Democratic Congress (ADC) expresses deep concern over disturbing reports emerging from several states across the country indicating that civil servants and government workers are being coerced, under pressure from the national and state-level leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC), to register for the ruling party’s ongoing e-registration exercise.
These reports, which are consistent and widespread, suggest a coordinated attempt to compel public servants to surrender their freedom of association as a condition for job security, career progression, or continued access to livelihood.
This is unacceptable in a democratic society.
