‘Fake news’ – APC on social media post announcing dates for its congresses

The All Progressives Congress, APC, has described as fake news social media posts announcing a purported schedule of activities for the party’s congresses.

Some social media users on Sunday circulated posts alongside pictures showing a supposed schedule of activities for APC congresses at ward, LGA, state, and national levels.

The post also included the alleged costs of nomination forms for party positions and the date for the party’s national convention.

Reacting in a statement issued on Sunday by its National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, APC stated that the timetable should be disregarded as fake news.

“The attention of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has been drawn to ‘APC 2025 Schedule of Nationwide Congresses and Related Activities’ widely in circulation on social media.

“Our great party wishes to clarify that the purported Schedule of Activities for Congresses was neither made nor authorised by the party, and should be disregarded as fake news,” the statement reads.
