The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Zamfara has debunked a report on the nomination of a governorship candidate for the 2027 general elections in the state.
There were speculations in the state that the party had nominated a gubernatorial candidate for the election.
The rumours had created tension among the APC members in the state, especially the party’s social media handlers.
The APC Publicity Secretary in the state, Yusuf Idris, in a chat with journalists in Gusau on Tuesday, described the speculations as baseless.
He said: “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 the 2027 general elections.
“I want to call on party members to remain calm. The party structure remains intact and united,” he said.
Idris called on 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.”
