The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, has distanced himself from circulating campaign posters that imply he intends to challenge President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 elections.
In a statement released on Sunday by his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu, Ganduje labeled the posters as fake and malicious.
He emphasized that the posters are the handiwork of mischief-makers, possibly in collaboration with certain members of the Kwankwassiyya movement, who aim to sow discord between him and Tinubu.
Ganduje stated, “This is to inform the general public that the poster 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 entirely false and a malicious piece of fake news.
“The All Progressives Congress (APC) wishes to categorically state that this is the work of mischief-makers, likely in collaboration with certain elements within the Kwankwassiyya movement, who are determined to create disaffection between Dr. Ganduje and His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
