Binani Campaign Rejects Babachir Lawal's Accusations

The campaign organization of Senator Aishatu Ahmed Binani, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) governorship candidate in Adamawa State, has responded to accusations made by former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Engr. Babachir Lawal. Lawal claimed that Binani and other NDC candidates in the northern zone were undermining the party’s presidential ticket.

In a statement signed by Hon. Mathias Yohanna, the Director of Media and Public Affairs for Binani's campaign, the organization labeled Lawal's claims as unsubstantiated and politically divisive. They asserted that Lawal has no electoral value and suggested he would struggle to win even in his own ward.

The campaign emphasized Binani's participation in a democratically convened meeting of NDC candidates, reaffirming their commitment to recognizing Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso as the party's leader in the North. The statement also criticized Lawal for his "indecent language" and personal attacks, asserting that they would not be intimidated.
