A former presidential aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adamu Garba, has dismissed viral claims suggesting he has resigned from the ruling party.

The rumour, circulated by an X user identified as @tenibegiloju202, alleged that Garba removed the APC flag from his office and quit the party over dissatisfaction with President Bola Tinubu’s leadership.

The post claimed:

“BREAKING: One of the ardent supporters of APC, Adamu Garba, just dumped the party. He removed the APC flag from his office and bid them farewell. According to him, the party under Tinubu has derailed and is no longer doing what the people want. More to follow.”

Reacting to the allegation, Garba described the report as false, misleading, and the handiwork of individuals spreading fake news.

In a post on X, he urged the public to disregard the claim and allow him to focus on his personal engagements.

“These bot-trons want to drag me back on this street with their mercantile fake news. I’m still very much a full member of the APC. Please allow me to write my books and do my business in peace,” he stated.
