Defection Talk Is Cheap Politics – Zulum Dismisses ADC Move Rumour
Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State has dismissed claims that he is planning to defect from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the African Democratic Congress (ADC), describing the reports as false and politically motivated.
A viral post on social media had alleged that Zulum and five other APC governors were set to leave the ruling party.
In a statement on Sunday, Zulum said the claims were “fictitious and mischievous,” insisting they were fabricated by individuals with no meaningful contribution to the development of Borno or Nigeria.
“This is entirely false and exists only in the imagination of its sponsors,” he said.
“They are detractors who have made no meaningful contribution to the progress of Borno State or Nigeria. It is a classic example of cheap, politically motivated speculation designed solely to distract us and create unnecessary political tension.”
He reiterated his commitment to the APC and his focus on the development of Borno.
“I urge the good people of Borno and the general public to disregard this fabrication. We have no time for cheap politics; our hands are full with the noble task of rebuilding and developing our dear state.
“We remain resolute in our commitment to serving Borno State under the banner of our great party, the APC,” he added.
Zulum also urged the public and media to rely only on credible and official sources for information.
