PMB Asks Prince Audu To Remove His Pictures From Campaign Posters And Materials by Sulaimon01(m): 3:46pm On Oct 25, 2015 |
The governorship candidate of the All Progressive
Congress (APC) for Kogi State, Prince Abubakar
Audu is facing opposition in his party in the state
but he is not having things easier nationally as
President Muhammadu Buhari who is known to not
abhor corruption has reportedly told Audu, who
has been at different times alleged of corruption, to
remove his (Buhari’s) pictures from all the
campaign and promotional materials for the
election.
According to Per Second News, a statement from
the Presidency said: “The attention of the president
has been drawn to the pictures and news flying
around that President Muhammadu Buhari has
adopted the candidature of Prince Audu Abubakar.
Let it be known that the President has not
endorsed the candidature of both the APC Bayelsa
and Kogi candidates; he is yet to do the official
endorsement pending when all the conditions of
His Excellency are met.
“His Excellency, Muhammadu Buhari has therefore
ordered the removal of his pictures from the
campaign materials of Prince Audu Abubakar and
has directed the Director General Prince Audu
Abubakar Campaign Organization to comply with
this directive effective immediately,” the statement
signed by presidential media aide Femi Adesina,
said.
The president had backed out of the National
campaign committee of Prince Abubakar Audu at a
recent meeting with the APC stakeholders, owing
to the integrity of the candidate and his
unconvinced answer to the allegation of the
embezzlement of N11 billion by the EFCC.
Vice President Yemi Osibanjo, who was said to
have been made head of the National Campaign
Committee for the coming Kogi governorship
election for APC, reportedly opted out at the last
minute of the inauguration of the committee in
Abuja, apparently due to similar reasons. The APC
Chairman, Chief John Odigie Oyegun, had since
appointed Governor Abubakar Bello of Niger State
as the chairman of the campaign committee in
place of Osinbajo. |

If it is true then I'm gradually coming to believe that this man is genuine. |
