A prominent member of the All Progressives Congress, Sani Jaji, has dismissed reports suggesting that he is no longer a member of the party.
Jaji emphasized that only the national headquarters has the constitutional authority to expel him.
In a statement released on Saturday, Jaji refuted claims that he had warned APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, regarding the 2027 elections, calling the reports misleading and false.
“It has come to the notice of the honourable member of the Federal House of Representatives, representing Kaura Namoda-Birnin Magaji federal constituency, Hon. Dr. Aminu Sani Jaji, that some mischief-makers had initiated another campaign of calumny aimed at tarnishing my hard-earned reputation in the name of politics,” the statement read.
Jaji specifically addressed a media report from an online news platform, dated February 14, 2025, which quoted him as warning Ganduje and former Governor of Kaduna, Nasir El-Rufai, over the upcoming election. He firmly denied making such statements, clarifying, “For the record to be clear, I have neither spoken to any media nor written any statements related to the subject and as such, the publication is a clear handiwork of the devilish politicians who do not mean well for the ruling APC.”
He further stressed his long-standing commitment to the APC, stating, “Such a statement cannot come from an experienced politician like Jaji who committed his resources, energy, and time since the beginning of the process of forming the party APC in 2013 to date and will always remain a true servant to the APC project at all times.”
