I am APC member, I like to be addressed as one – Buhari
By Faith AM
The immediate past Nigerian President, Muhammdu Buhari said he remained a card carrier of the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC.
This is contained in a statement through his official X as signed by his media aide, Garba Shehu on Thursday evening as obtained by FMBlog.
According to the statement “I AM APC MEMBER, I LIKE TO BE ADDRESSED AS ONE — BUHARI
“Without referring to any individual, cast of characters, or issues, principles and ideals currently being discussed by Party leaders at various levels, former President Muhammadu Buhari has reiterated what he’s said times without number, that he is a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) @OfficialAPCNg, and would like to be addressed as a loyal member of the party.
“He says he wants to leave no one in doubt that he would never turn his back on the Party that gave him two terms of office, and would do whatever he can to popularise it.
“I am an APC member and I like to be addressed as such. I will try to popularise the party by all means.
”He went on to add that at present, he has nothing but gratitude for the support that the Party gave him before and during his tenure as President, which he considers as the highest honour, and would never ask for anything more.
“He further stated that the pains taken by the founding fathers to establish a strong party to protect our constitution, and democracy as a system of government, are worthy sacrifices that should be cherished and nurtured.
“Signed.Garba Shehu 13 March 2025”.
This is unconnected to the report that the former Kaduna State Governor, Ahmed Nasir El-Rifai shortly after he decamped to the opposition, SDP said that “the ex-president (Buhari) gave him his blessings”.
El-Rufai, a former Kaduna State Governor who served under the ruling APC had recently dumped the party for the opposition, Social Democratic Party, SDP in the State.
