File: Chairman-elect of Kuje Area Council, Danjuma Shekwolo
The Chairman of Kuje Area Council in the Federal Capital Territory, Danjuma Shekwolo, has clarified his earlier comment asking residents to support the All Progressives Congress or leave the council.
Shekwolo made the clarification on Wednesday following criticism over a video of him in which he said he would not tolerate opposition from residents who had benefited from the efforts of President Bola Tinubu and FCT Minister Nyesom Wike.
In the video, Shekwolo said, “I have said in my area council, it’s either you are doing APC or leave the area council. I am not arguing with you.”
However, addressing journalists and stakeholders on Wednesday, the chairman said the remarks had been taken out of context and did not reflect his intention or the position of his administration.
