The Action Democratic Party (ADP) said its governorship candidate in Kaduna State, Sani Sha’aban, will not step down for any candidate in the governorship election.
The party explained that the clarification is necessary because of the rumour that its candidate in Kaduna State is stepping down for another candidate.
The party’s National Secretary, Victor Fingesi, in a statement in Kaduna on Thursday assured that the ADP governorship candidate is the choice of the people of the state to become their next governor.
The party, therefore, urged all party faithful and the good people of the state to disregard the rumour and come out in large numbers and vote for its governorship candidate and those for the House of Assembly.
According to the statement: “The National Secretariat of our great party, the Action Democratic Party (ADP) has observed with dismay the malicious and mischievous rumour making the rounds of a purported alliance/merger of our great party or of its governorship candidate in Kaduna State stepping down or supporting the candidate of another party.”
The statement described the rumour as a calculation to malign the good name of the party and its governorship candidate at the Saturday, March 18, 2023 governorship election.
The party maintained that its candidate, Sha’aban, is in the governorship race to win and therefore would not step down for other candidates hence no justification for the party’s supporters to align themselves with governorship candidates of other parties.
