Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has debunked reports that he has dumped the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
Bello, who is the National Youth Coordinator of the Tinubu-Shettima Presidential Campaign Council said his unwavering support for Tinubu and his running mate, Kashim Shettima, in the 2023 presidential election remained undiluted.
The governor stated this in a post via his verified Facebook page on Sunday, while reacting to report that he may have dumped the Tinubu campaign.
According to the report, Bello’s action could have been informed by the permutations in the North-Central state ahead of the November governorship election.
Debunking this, Bello said, “My unwavering support for Tinubu/Shettima 2023 is 100% undiluted. God bless APC!!! God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria!”
The rumour is also coming barely 24 hours after Naja’atu Muhammad, who was the director in the Tinubu-Shettima campaign resigned from the position and dumped the APC.
67-year-old Naja’atu was the Director of Civil Society in the Presidential Campaign Council of the ruling APC.
Her resignation letter was directed to the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, in which she also decried the state of the nation, and said she would rather be involved in salvaging the country than continue in party politics.
