BREAKING: APC disowns fake list of senatorial candidates circulating online
ABUJA, Nigeria (NPA) — The All Progressives Congress (APC) has issued a strong disclaimer over a purported list of senatorial candidates currently making the rounds on social media and some online platforms.
In a statement signed by Felix Morka, National Publicity Secretary, the party described the publication titled “Concluded List of APC Senatorial Candidates So Far” as false, misleading, and unauthorised.
The APC stressed that the document did not emanate from its leadership and urged members, stakeholders, the media, and the general public to disregard it in its entirety.
The ruling party emphasised that only its National Working Committee (NWC), acting through duly recognised communication channels, has the constitutional authority to announce candidates emerging from primaries or other legitimate processes. It warned that circulating unverified information could mislead the public, sow confusion, and undermine the integrity of its democratic procedures.
Reiterating its commitment to transparency, the APC cautioned members and supporters against lending credibility to fake publications.
The party assured Nigerians that official announcements regarding candidates will continue to be made exclusively through its authorised platforms.
