The Director of Media and Publicity of the Kabiru Tanimu Turaki campaign organisation, Sola Atere has debunked a rumor on Turaki yielding his aspiration to co-aspirant.

The rumor, which is being circulated on some Whatsapp groups, has it that Turaki is one of the People’s Democratic Party PDP presidential aspirants planning to step down for former president Atiku Abubakar who is also part of the race.

Atere, however, in his brief reaction to the rumor, told NewsBreakng: “Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, SAN, is a man of integrity, credibility, honour and highly responsible and God-fearing professional”.

He added that: “Turaki is in the race for the presidency to serve the nation with all sense of responsibility and trust.

“He has the uncommon capacity to hold the office of the President with all due respect and has not yielded his aspiration to anybody”.
