The Zamfara chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has debunked a viral report that it has declared a governorship candidate for the 2027 General Elections in the state.
The State APC Publicity Secretary, Malam Yusuf Idris Gusau made this known while reacting to the matter in Gusau, described the speculations as baseless.
He explained that, there were speculations going round the state that the party has nominated a governorship candidate for the 2027 General Elections.
According to him, the rumour had created tension among the APC members in the state, especially the party’s social media handlers.
“All the speculations going round the state were merely fabricated but not from the party.
“This is to inform the public that the APC leadership is not aware of any decision of any governorship candidate of the party ahead of 2027 General Elections.
Malam Yusuf Gusau called on the party members to remain calm, stressing that the party structure remains intact and united.
He however asked the party members not to allow any rumours or unfounded information to distract their commitment towards building the party.
“The state APC chapter welcomes any aspirant willing to contest in the party, but let the time come.
“I think the issue of the party’s candidates to contest for the election must be produced by the party primaries not by some stakeholders’ meeting,”he explained.
