APC says it's presidential candidate Gen Buhari
will not be participating in the presidential
debate being organized by the Broadcasting
Organization of Nigeria BON and the Nigeria
Election Debate Group (NEDG) .
In a statement released today January 29th by
Garna Shehu, the Director, Media and Publicity
of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation
(APCPCO), they said Buhari will not be
participating in the debate as the composition
of those organizing the debate was mainly of
agencies and allies of the incumbent People’s
Democratic Party’s (PDP) administration.

The statement reads in part;
“A cursory inspection of the composition
of NEGD brings into focus the
Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria
(BON), National Television Authority (NTA),
Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria
(FRCN) and the Africa Independent
Television (AIT, owned by a PDP
chieftain). And going by the avalanche of
inflammatory statements, misinformation
and blatant lies being propagated by some
of these media against our Party and
candidates contrary to the Kofi Annan
brokered Abuja Peace Accord, and the
failure of these aggressors to desist and
apologise, have left the APC Campaign
with no option than to steer clear of any
premeditated smear campaign that could
be inimical to our prospective electoral
success,” .
