This is nothing but a lie – Tinubu’s camp denies endorsing Muslim-Muslim ticket

The camp of All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential aspirant, Bola Tinubu, has denied endorsing a Muslim-Muslim ticket.

In a statement by his media team, Tinubu said the text message being circulated at the Eagles Square, the venue of APC Special Convention, was false.

He noted that the text messages were the handiwork of shameless, desperate, and misguided individuals.

“We have been informed of a text message going around APC delegates at Eagles Square in Abuja purportedly from Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu claiming that with his imminent victory at the APC presidential primary and emergence as the party’s presidential candidate, the APC leader has now decided on a Muslim-Muslim ticket.

“This is nothing but a lie, it has no basis whatsoever.

“We enjoin the distinguished delegates to ignore this completely.

“The fake text message is a ploy by some undemocratic elements to confuse and hoodwink delegates sensing that Asiwaju Tinubu is comfortably coasting home to victory.

“There is no truth whatsoever in any of these messages. They are lies perpetrated by shameless, desperate and misguided individuals and should be ignored as such.”
