The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has dismissed as false and malicious the campaign posters circulating on social media that suggest he plans to run against President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.

In a statement released on Sunday by his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu, Ganduje attributed the posters to mischief-makers.

The controversial posters, which have been widely shared online, also show Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma as Ganduje’s proposed running mate. Ganduje’s office was quick to debunk the claims.

“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 Uzodinma, as his running mate, is entirely false and a malicious piece of fake news,” the statement clarified.

Ganduje’s office suggested that the posters may have been created by individuals within the Kwankwassiyya movement, with the intent of sowing discord between Ganduje and President Tinubu.

“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,” the statement read.

The APC National Chairman reiterated his loyalty to President Tinubu and his administration, emphasizing his commitment to supporting the President’s vision for the country.

“For the avoidance of doubt, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje remains unwaveringly loyal to President Tinubu and is fully committed to supporting the President’s vision and leadership. Dr. Ganduje believes that President Tinubu is on the right trajectory to steer Nigeria towards greater prosperity and unity.”

The statement concluded by urging the public to disregard the fake posters and refrain from spreading unverified information.
