The All Progressives Congress (APC) Thursday afternoon has denied that its National Chairman Senator Abdullahi Adamu has written a letter on the controversial list of the party’s Presidential Campaign Committee (PCC).
Both mainstream and social media had reported early on Thursday that APC National Chairman Abdullahi Adamu has written to the presidential candidate of the party Senator Ahmed Bola Tinubu accusing the latter of breaching an agreement on how the party’s PCC should be drawn.
The rebuttal is coming on the heels of reports on Thursday in the mainstream and social media to that effect
The National Publicity Secretary of the ruling party, Barr. Felix Morka said in a statement titled: APC Presidential Campaign Council – Senator Abdullahi Adamu Did Not Write Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu that “the “DRAFT” letter did not emanate from the party, adding that “an UNSIGNED letter that marks itself as a ‘DRAFT’ cannot and should not be attributed to its purported author.”
The statement further reads: “To be clear, the National Chairman of our Party and our Presidential Candidate maintain cordial and effective communication channels, and enjoy full liberty of open and frank conversations on matters of interest to the Party and our Presidential Campaign. As such, an unsigned “DRAFT” letter of the kind in circulation is patently unnecessary and of no qualitative value to engagement between the Party and the PCC.
“We will not be distracted by the wishes and actions of detractors that wait gleefully but in vain for some kind of crisis to erupt between the Party and the PCC.
“We stand united, as a Party, in our resolve and commitment to execute a focused and issue-driven campaign to persuade Nigerians to renew our mandate in next year’s general election.”
