The Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Council has said that it had no knowledge of any internal polling by the British government, and as result, did not base the visit of its presidential candidate to the United Kingdom on the notion, as erroneously implied by a section of the media, noting that the candidate’s visit to the European nation was purely on invitation as a leading candidate for the 2023 presidential election.
The notion was corrected in a statement signed by the Director of Strategic Communications, Chief Dele Momodu, where he appreciated the Nigeria media for the coverage of the visit, and the British government for the invitation.
Momodu maintained that “It is a tradition for foreign governments to seek audience with leading candidates in a forthcoming election, and this is not an exception”, stating that as one of the mainstream political parties in Nigeria, ‘we are truly honored by the invitation’.
