Binani's Campaign Rejects Lawal's Accusations Amid NDC Tensions

The campaign organization of Senator Aishatu Ahmed Binani, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) governorship candidate in Adamawa State, has responded to accusations from Engr. Babachir Lawal, the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation. Lawal, who recently emerged as a leader of NDC's political activities in the North-East, accused Binani and other NDC candidates of undermining the party's presidential ticket.

In a statement signed by Hon. Mathias Yohanna, the campaign organization described Lawal's claims as unsubstantiated and politically divisive. They emphasized Binani's participation in a democratically convened meeting of NDC candidates and reaffirmed their commitment to recognizing Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso as the party's leader in the North.

The statement criticized Lawal for using derogatory language and called for the NDC's national leadership to intervene in the dispute, promoting unity and respect among party members as essential for the upcoming 2027 elections.
