Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has described it as the work of mischief makers working in collaboration with elements of the Kwankwasiyya movement to cause discord between him and President Bola Tinubu by circulating 2027 presidential posters of himself and Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma as running mates.
Ganduje, speaking through his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu, in an Abuja statement on Sunday, condemned the occurrence as “entirely false ans a malicious piece of fake news”.
The statement reads: “This is to inform the general public that the posters currently circulating on social media, claiming that the APC National Chairman, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, is contesting for the presidency in 2027 with Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, as his running mate, is completely untrue and malicious fake news.
“The All Progressives Congress (APC) wishes to categorically state that this is the work of mischief-makers, most likely in collaboration with certain elements within the Kwankwassiyya movement, who are determined to sow discord between Dr. Ganduje and His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
“For the avoidance of doubt, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje remains unwaveringly loyal to President Tinubu and is totally committed to advancing his vision and leadership. Dr. Ganduje feels that President Tinubu is on the right track to lead Nigeria to greater wealth and unity.
“We urge the public to disregard this fabricated story and refrain from spreading unverified information” .
