The APC has emphatically denied ever congratulating opposition PDP candidate and winner of last weekend’s Benue South senatorial rerun election, Senator David Mark.

Online media sources were awash with rumours that the party and its representative for the rerun election may be at a crossroads, adding that while the APC candidate, Daniel Onjeh, has rejected and protested the outcome of the election, the party has already congratulated Mark after election commission INEC declared him winner.

However, in a release signed by National Secretary of the party, Mai Mala Buni, APC argued that the so-called ‘congratulatory message’ on a twitter handle purportedly belonging to the party did not come from the party, warning the general public to beware of false messages.

According to the ruling party: “The attention of the National Secretariat of the APC has been drawn to some false online publications reporting that the party has congratulated David Mark, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), candidate in last Saturday’s Benue South senatorial rerun election.

“The APC has not issued any congratulatory message on the Benue South Senatorial rerun election. The ‘congratulatory message’ purportedly obtained from a twitter handle, ‘@APCNigeria’, did not emanate from the party. The purported twitter message itself is not credited to any APC official.

“The general public is advised to ignore the false message. The APC reiterates that only the National Chairman and the National Secretary officially speak for the party.”

Sore losers

As if it's wrong to congratulate. I really do not understanding.

Demonic Party!

I'd have been surprised.
It's APC.. They don't do PEACE tinz

TheFreeOne:
APC congratulates David Mark whilst Onjeh protests results

That'll be a real change if that tweet is not denied soon cos APC and inconclusive elections are like bread and butter.

Anyway, congratulations to David another John McCain in the making and I hope he gives more dividends of democracy to his people for their support / continued trust in him.

APC is so predictable

The party is an amalgamation of strange bedfellows, a typical example of faulty foundational structure bedeviling Nigeria hence their discordant tunes.

Why can't they be civil for once, this is a democracy

I know

screw them, they can do whatever they want, no one gives a rat ass about them. he won yes deal with it.
these set of people annoy me. they really think they have what it takes to monopolize Nigeria
