He claimed that many false allegations and stories about Tinubu had recently surfaced on social media, emphasizing that the committee would counter any social misinformation.
He said;
Apart from contributing financially and in materials in this election, we are in the process of setting up a committee that will be dedicated to the debunking of social media misinformation directed at our party and its presidential candidate. There’s so much at stake in the forthcoming elections, it is not surprising therefore that in desperation, some people have turned social media to the harbinger of slander and blackmail. The role of the committee among others will be to counter any lies or misinformation towards our principal candidate with facts that will invalidate their tissue of lies.
Apata said the party will maintain and sustain the continuity necessary to leave an indelible footprint of growth, development, and stability for future generations. The APC chieftain said the chapter had contributed resources to ensure the party wins the forthcoming presidential poll.
We are determined to do even more in the current political dispensation to ensure that our great party maintains and sustains the continuity necessary to leave an indelible footprint of growth, development, and stability for generations yet unborn in Nigeria.”We are also blessed to have Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu, a transformative and visionary politician as our flagbearer. We are already making our presence felt in Nigeria by working with and supporting the Diaspora directorate ably headed by Prince Ade Omole. It is also great to have a prominent member of the APC Canada Chapter in the person of Dr. Abiola Oshodi as a member of the presidential campaign council.
