In a statement signed by the APC Publicity Secretary, Yusuf Idris Gusau, the party described the story published by confidentialreporters.blogspot.com as “false and mischievous.”
“The Zamfara APC has never approached the PDP or Governor Dauda Lawal in any way to join our party,” Yusuf Gusau said.
The statement emphasized that the APC remains unimpressed with the performance of the governor, citing its victory in the August 16 Kaura Namoda South bye-election as evidence of the PDP’s declining support.
The APC further noted that the PDP candidate in that election, along with several supporters, has since defected to the APC.
“We do not need the lies of an unpopular online medium to sustain our already strong grassroots support,” the party stated.
The Zamfara APC called on the public to disregard the report and rely on the party’s verified communication channels for authentic information.
