Senator Saliu Mustapha, representing Kwara Central Senatorial District and Turaki of Ilorin Emirate, has refuted claims circulating on social media alleging his defection from the All Progressives Congress (APC) and purported endorsement by another political party.

In a statement issued by his media aide, Nasif Sholagberu, Senator Mustapha labeled the allegations as baseless and aimed at misleading the public.

“Our attention has been drawn to a series of fabricated reports circulating on social media, alleging a purported endorsement and defection involving Senator Saliu Mustapha,” the statement began.

Senator Mustapha reiterated his commitment to delivering on his legislative mandate, emphasizing his focus on providing quality representation to the people of Kwara Central.

He dismissed the allegations as “cheap and unfounded propaganda” designed to distract from his work.

The statement also reaffirmed his unwavering loyalty to the APC, highlighting his pivotal role as a founding member of the party.

It noted his contributions to the merger of legacy parties in 2013, which gave birth to the APC, and praised his efforts toward the growth and success of the party.

“As one of the privileged signatories to the historic February 2013 agreement, his contributions are well-documented and respected by party stakeholders,” the statement noted.

Senator Mustapha urged the public to disregard the reports, attributing them to individuals with ulterior motives and desperation.

“Leadership and ambition are determined solely by the will of God Almighty, not by smear campaigns,” he declared.

The senator concluded by calling on citizens to dismiss the reports as the handiwork of mischief makers and focus on constructive engagement for the progress of Kwara Central and the nation at large.
