The Kayode Fayemi Campaign Office has denied reports that the All Progressives Congress (APC) flag bearer has chosen Habibat Adubiaro as his running mate.
This was revealed in a statement by the organization on Tuesday where it described the reports as untrue.
As stated by the statement, “The attention of the JKF Campaign Office has been drawn to a story that has gone viral on the social media that the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr Kayode Fayemi, has picked Hajia Habibat Adubiaro as the deputy governorship candidate of the party in the July 14 governorship election.
“This report is not only false, but misleading.
“We have since discovered that the story emanated from the same source that concocted a story last week purporting that Dr Fayemi planned to create cattle colonies across the state.
“The general public is hereby notified that APC has a formal way of conducting its affairs in strict compliance with the party’s rules and regulations.
“At the appropriate time the party would formally announce the deputy governorship candidate.
“We therefore urge members of the public to stop taking seriously any announcement that does not emanate from appropriate party organs.”
