The Presidency therefore urged stakeholders to ignore a claim by one of the factional leaders that President Buhari had endorsed the faction.
The statement read in full:
“The Presidency wishes to counter a public statement by one of the factions of the All Progressives Congress in Kano State, that they have received the endorsement of President Muhammadu Buhari.
This is blatantly untrue. This cannot happen when matters are awaiting adjudication by the courts.
To be clear on this one, President Buhari has not endorsed any faction.
His support is for the All Progressives Congress as a Party, united and strong, and not of any faction.”
