Governor Babangida Aliyu of Niger State on Sunday disassociated himself from the poster circulating on social media linking him with the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Muhammadu Buhari.<\/p>\n
In a statement, Mr. Aliyu\u2019s Chief Press Secretary, Ebije Israel, stated that the poster, which depicted Messrs Aliyu and Buhari together, were fake.
\nHe attributed it to the antics of desperate politicians, who are out to mislead the electorate and cause friction in the state chapter of the People\u2019s Democratic Party, PDP.
\nThe poster trending on the social media has the picture of Mr. Aliyu, as PDP senatorial candidate together with Mr. Buhari, the APC presidential candidate.
\n\u201cIt is indeed disturbing and very embarrassing to see campaign poster carrying the picture of Gov. Mu\u2019azu Babangida Aliyu and Gen. Muhammadu Buhari.
\n\u201cIt is very clear that those behind the act of shame have gone beyond desperation as they are attempting to force a link between the Governor and the All Progressive Congress (APC).
\n\u201cThe Niger State Governor has categorically condemned the move, and he is calling on supporters of the PDP to remain focused, and vote overwhelmingly for the PDP during the general elections,\u201d it stated.
