Governor Yahaya Bello Debunks Dumping Tinubu

Governor Yahaya Bello has debunked dumping Tinubu.

Glamtush reports that the Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, has debunked reports that he dumped the campaign train of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu.

This online platform understands that the governor, in a post via his verified Facebook page on Sunday, said his unwavering support for Tinubu and his running mate, Kashim Shettima, in the 2023 presidential election remained undiluted.

Reports in some media outlets claimed that the Kogi governor may have dumped the Tinubu campaign.

The report said the National Youth Coordinator of the Tinubu-Shettima Presidential Campaign Council’s action could have been informed by the permutations in the North-Central state ahead of 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 a key player in the Tinubu-Shettima campaign dumped the APC.

Glamtush reports that Naja’atu Muhammad, who was a director in the presidential campaign team of Tinubu resigned from the position on Saturday.

Naja’atu, 67, was the Director of Civil Society in the Presidential Campaign Council of the ruling APC.

Naja’atu’s resignation came one month to the presidential election.

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.
