The senator representing Kwara Central in the National Assembly, Saliu Mustapha has clarified that he remains a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Mustapha also denied reports of his purported defection from the APC, describing the rumour as baseless.
In a statement released by his media aide, Nasif Solagberu , Mustapha said that he remains steadfast in his mandate at the National Assembly, which is to deliver quality representation to the Kwara central senatorial district.

He added that he remains fully focused on this responsibility and would not be distracted by cheap and unfounded propaganda.

The statement partly reads:”
Our attention has been drawn to a series of fabricated reports circulating on social media, alleging a purported endorsement and defection involving Senator Saliu Mustapha, the Turaki of Ilorin Emirate and Senator representing Kwara central senatorial district.

“As a matter of principle and policy, we do not dignify fake news or its peddlers with rebuttals. This explains our dignified silence over the past weeks as various baseless claims, fabricated by the usual suspects, are being trended with reckless abandon across the social media.

“Senator Saliu Mustapha remains steadfast in his mandate at the National Assembly, which is to deliver quality representation to the good people of Kwara central senatorial district. He is fully focused on this responsibility and refuses to be distracted by cheap and unfounded propaganda.

” For the sake of clarity, it is worth reiterating that Senator Saliu Mustapha remains a staunch and loyal founding member of the All Progressives Congress (APC). As one of the privileged signatories to the historic February 2013 agreement that collapsed the three legacy parties to form the APC, his contributions to the creation, growth, and continued success of the party are well documented and highly regarded by stakeholders and members.

“We therefore urge the public to disregard this fake news and treat it as the product of the imagination of mischief makers who have nothing constructive to offer.”
