The former presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, has denied resigning from the party.
Atiku described himself as a bona fide and loyal member of
PDP.
He accused desperate politicians of sponsoring the falsehood
through a Facebook page.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Paul Ibe, Atiku
condemned the claim as malicious lies and a political hatchet job.
The statement read: “We ordinarily would not waste words on
faceless social media platforms like the so-called ‘Adamawa Happenings.’
However, in light of inquiries from concerned Nigerians and credible members of
the press, we are compelled to set the record straight: His Excellency Atiku
Abubakar, former Vice President of Nigeria (1999–2007) and Presidential
Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has not — we repeat, has not —
resigned from the PDP. He remains a steadfast, bona fide, and loyal member of
the party.
“The source of this baseless rumour is a Facebook page
peddling falsehoods, evidently orchestrated by desperate political operatives
with nothing but mischief and confusion on their agenda. It is a calculated
attempt to mislead the public and sow discord among the millions of Nigerians
who look to Atiku Abubakar for direction and leadership. This is not just fake
news — it is a crude, shameless political hatchet job.
“We urge Nigerians, especially supporters of the Waziri
Adamawa, to disregard this malicious fabrication. It is a vile, vexatious ploy
that deserves nothing but contempt.
“Atiku Abubakar remains committed to the ideals of the PDP
and to the democratic aspirations of the Nigerian people.”
