A former governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje, has identified those behind emergence of his campaign posters ahead of 2027 presidential campaign.
The posters, which are reportedly seen at conspicuous places in Abuja as well as on social media, showed Ganduje being paired with Imo State Governor Hope Nzodinma.
Ganduje, who is acting national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), described the poster as the handiwork of mischief makers working in collaboration with elements of the Kwankwasiyya movement.
He claimed that their plan is to cause disaffection between him and President Bola Tinubu by circulating 2027 presidential posters of himself and Governor Uzodinma as running mate.
The posters which have the slogan, ‘For Nigerians, prosperity and human capital development’ also indicated that the two political gladiators would contest the 2027 election on the platform of the APC.
Ganduje who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu on the poster in a statement on Sunday in Abuja, described the development as “entirely false and 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 entirely false and a malicious piece of fake news.
“We urge the public to disregard this fabricated story and refrain from spreading unverified information.”
