Special adviser to the President on New media and engagement, Bashir Ahmad in a tweet on his official handle @BashirAhmaad also confirmed it.

Recall that a member of the Board of Truste All Progressive Congress, APC, Engr. Buba Galadima, stated that the party is not a political party.

Galadimma also asked President Muhammadu to resign so as to allow other Nigerians contest and take the country out of the current economic mess and recession.

According to Galadima, he said he said he was baffled at how President Buhari had let the country down by keeping quiet in all the happenings around Nigeria.

Galadima was the National Secretary of the former Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, formed in the run-up to the 2011 national elections as a leading platform for former military ruler General Muhammadu Buhari, which later merged with ACN and others in 2015 to become APC.
