Speaker
of the House of Representatives, Hon Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, has distanced
himself from the posters donning various streets of Abuja purported to be
promoting his alleged Presidential bid.
In
a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Public Affairs, Malam
Imam Imam, Tambuwal thanked those who placed the posters for considering him
fit for elective office, but advised them not to breach the laws of the land. continue...
While
we thank them for deeming the Rt Hon Speaker fit for future elective office in
the country, let it be known that since the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) has not given the go-ahead for those interested in elective
positions to start mobilisation, it is inappropriate for any person or group to
print campaign posters and have them placed in strategic locations in any part
of the country.
Laws
of the Federation are meant to be obeyed by all persons irrespective of their
societal status. As a law abiding citizen, the Honourable Speaker will make
known the direction of his political future and intention at the appropriate
time, the statement added.
