Stressing that he is still a staunch member of the ruling party, he said, “I will at best describe the rumour as malicious and a total fallacy emanating from rabble rousers who are bent on maligning my political reputation and integrity.”

He warned the purveyors of such misinformation to refrain from such acts.

“I want to state abundantly clear that I have not contemplated joining any other political party and I remain a loyal member of the APC.”
