Former President Namadi Sambo has dismissed the report of his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Sambo, in a statement by his Media Adviser, Umar Sani, described the report his defection as a fabrication intended to mislead the public.

The statement emphasised that the widely circulated photograph of former VP Sambo with Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani used to support the defection story was an old image.

Sani reaffirmed, that the former Vice President remained a loyal and committed member of the PDP and has no intention of joining any other political party.

LEADERSHIP on Wednesday reports the defection of Sani Sidi, an ally of the former vice president to the APC alongside his supporters, in Kaduna.

“My attention has been drawn to a widely circulated story alleging that His Excellency, Arc. Mohammed Namadi Sambo, GCON, former Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC). This claim is entirely false and without any basis.

“Following numerous calls and inquiries, I have taken the liberty on the authority of His Excellency’s family to issue this formal rebuttal. I categorically state that the story is a fabrication, laced with mischief and aimed at misleading the public.

“The photograph supporting this falsehood, showing His Excellency with the Governor of Kaduna State, Senator Uba Sani, is not recent. It was taken years ago during a condolence visit by the Governor to His Excellency’s residence in Abuja, following the demise of his brother, the late Sani Sambo. The image is now being deliberately misrepresented to fit a contrived narrative.

“Furthermore, His Excellency is scheduled to attend the commissioning of a 300-bed hospital in Kaduna on Thursday, 19th June 2025. This project, which he initiated during his time in office, stands as a testament to his enduring commitment to public service and the development of Kaduna State. His invitation to witness the completion of this legacy project, and possibly offer a few remarks, must not be misconstrued as a political endorsement or as confirmation of any partisan shift.

“For the avoidance of doubt, His Excellency, Arc. Mohammed Namadi Sambo remains a loyal and committed member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). He has no intention of joining any other political party. The defection story is purely the figment of the imagination of its authors calculated to sow confusion and achieve cheap political mileage,” the statement reads in part.
