The Presidency and a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Chief Olu Falae, have condemned the Monday reported attack on the convoy of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), by some residents of Kano State.
The Presidency, in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, accused the Peoples Democratic Party of allegedly latching onto “fake reports” about the stoning of the President’s convoy in Kano.
Late Monday, the PDP condemned the attack on the President in Kano, saying the attack was allegedly sponsored by the presidential candidate of the APC, Bola Tinubu.It said “The divisive rhetoric of an opposition in a futile attempt to malign the image of the President and the candidates of the All Progressives Congress in the coming elections, and its desperate wedge-driving activities to cause a division between the party and the government is not what will give them victory.
The Presidency also urged religious and political leaders to steer the youth from the path of violence, adding that Buhari has not lost respect in Kano.
