The African Democratic Congress (ADC) candidate for the Zuru/Fakai/Sakaba/Danko-Wasagu Federal Constituency of Kebbi State, Abubakar Sadiq Saadu, has challenged an alleged forged affidavit purportedly withdrawing his candidature ahead of the 2027 general election.
Saadu, in a statement issued in Birnin Kebbi on Friday, described the document as a forgery and urged relevant authorities to investigate and prosecute those responsible.
He said he had been declared the winner of the ADC primary election for the constituency, after which his name was submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as the party’s candidate.
According to him, his attention was recently drawn to an affidavit purportedly sworn on July 28, 2026, before a Commissioner for Oath at the High Court of Justice, Maitama, Abuja.
