The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board has disowned a purported circular circulating on social media which promoted a presidential ticket involving former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, and former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, ahead of the 2027 elections.

CDCFIB, in a statement issued on Friday by its Head of Press and Public Relations, Okeh Juliet, described the circular as false and unauthorised.

“The Board wishes to dissociate itself from the purported statement and wishes to inform the public that it is false, unauthorised, and as such, did not originate from the Board or the Office of the Secretary to the Board,” the statement said.

The Board said the document contained political undertones that were inconsistent with its official communication standards.

“The purported document contains political undertones which is not consistent with the official, non-partisan communication standards of the Board. Members of the public are advised to disregard it in its entirety,” it stated.
