APC leaders invited bandits ravaging Nigeria – Adeniyi

The phrase refers to a statement by Adeniyi Adeniyi, a senior member of Nigeria’s All Progressives Congress (APC), in which he accused the party’s leaders of “inviting bandits” who are terrorising parts of the country. He alleged that political patronage, lax security policies and the manipulation of elections have emboldened armed criminal groups—commonly called “bandits”—to operate with impunity across north‑central and north‑western Nigeria, worsening insecurity and civilian suffering.
