PDP disowns presidential campaign ‘timetable’

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has disowned what it described as a phony presidential campaign timetable currently circulating in some traditional and social media platforms.

Spokesman for the PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement on Tuesday, said the PDP has not released any timetable or timeline for its presidential campaign.Calling on its members and supporters to disregard the fake timetable, the party said the presidential campaign council would soon come up with the authentic timetable.

The statement said, “The fabricators of the post even went further to allocate venues and dates for zonal rallies, which they claimed to have emanated from the PDP Presidential Campaign Council.

“For the avoidance of doubt, the PDP clarifies that it has not yet released any timetable or timelines for our presidential campaigns. Similarly, our party has not yet allotted any dates or venues for our campaigns.

“The leadership of the PDP therefore urges all our members and supporters across board to completely disregard the said timetable on the social media, as it did not emanate from the PDP.

“The PDP Presidential Campaign Council led by His Excellency, Senator Bukola Saraki, will soon make public the authentic timetable for our presidential campaign and such information will have the full seal of our party and disseminated through PDP official handles.”
