Adamu Garba, a former presidential aspirant, has dismissed reports claiming he has defected from the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 elections.
Legit.ng reports that the speculation emerged on social media following assertions by the African Democratic Congress (ADC) that it has the support to challenge President Bola Tinubu. The rumours intensified after ADC leaders stated that the party is starting 2026 with hopes of embarking on a mission to ‘rescue Nigeria.’
However, in a post on his X (formerly Twitter) account, Garba refuted the claims, affirming that he remains a committed APC member.
Responding to @TENIBEGILOJU202, who on Wednesday, February 18, shared an old video of Garba removing the APC flag from his office, the Adamawa-born politician clarified via X:
“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.”
