The Presidency has described as false a report that there is an advisory by the Department of State Service, DSS, on Kashim Shettima, running mate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
The Presidency advised all well-meaning Nigerians to ignore the “laughably puerile report.”
The statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu reads:
“There Is No DSS Advisory Before President Buhari On APC Running Mate, It’s A False Story
“We wish to advise well-meaning Nigerians to ignore a laughably puerile report by an apparently pirate online newspaper seeking to sow division and chaos on the choice of Governor Kashim Shettima as the Running Mate of our Party’s Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“This so-called newspaper is like a deadly virus. Stay safe by keeping away from its toxic reports.”
