The All Progressives Congress (APC) has denied media reports it conducted an assessment poll on two years of President Muhammadu Buhari administration.
A statement signed on Wednesday by APC National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, said the party “has not conducted or authorised any assessment poll on the President Buhari administration.”
It advised the media and indeed the general public to ignore “the questionable poll”.
The party added that the verified twitter handle, @APCNigeria, with which the “assessment poll” was purportedly conducted, is not the official twitter account of the APC.
“Unfortunately, media organisations that published the story did not verify from the party’s publicity department the authenticity of the unauthorised poll credited to the party,” it continued.
The statement concluded that the party had on February 21, 2016 distanced itself from the twitter handle “following a similar false report credited to the Party on the outcome of the Benue South Senatorial rerun election”.
@APCNigeria currently has more than 563 followers and has the blue verified symbol of authenticity from Twitter.
