APC Distances Self From Ongoing Registration in Borno

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Borno State has
disassociated itself from an alleged illegal registration of new
members in the state.

The party, in a statement signed by its secretary, Alhaji Bello
Ayuba, said the registration being carried out by those it
described as “suspicious group of persons has a hidden agenda that
aims to undermine President Muhammadu Buhari’s re-election
bid.”

Ayuba, who said the illegal registration, was not approved by
the leadership of the party either at the national or state level,
called on its members across the 27 local government areas of the
state to disregard the exercise.

He said the APC would send officials from the national
headquarters, Abuja to different states when it is ready to
register members, and noted that those behind the ongoing exercise
were “working underground to stop legitimate registration of APC
members, mislead people and collate their names for a purpose that
has hidden motive.”

He said, “party’s officials have been receiving calls by its
teeming members saying they had come in contact with some people
who claim to be officials undertaking registration of APC members
in Borno State as well as registration of citizens who intend to
vote for President Muhammadu Buhari.”
