The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity,
Garba Shehu, on Sunday, said there was no truth in the claim that
President Muhammadu Buhari was behind the removal of Kano State Chairman
of the All Progressives Congress, Umar Doguwa.
“Anybody, who knows the President’s principles, would not believe any allegations linking Buhari to interfere in the election or removal of party leaders across the country.
“In fact, it is an irony that President Buhari, who was accused in the past of not taking control of the National Assembly by imposing the President of the Senate and Speaker, two critical institutions in the running of our democracy, will now be accused of abandoning those principles to order the removal of the chairman of the Kano APC chapter.
“I am 100 per cent convinced that this group, which is being associated with the respected senator representing Kano, Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, did not seek his permission or clear their script with him before they dragged the name of the President into this matter.
“Senator Kwankwaso knows President Buhari too well to reduce him to this level.
“This group is hereby advised to stop belittling the person and office of the President by dragging his name into their local party quarrels. It is unfair to attack President Buhari for an issue he knew nothing about.”
