ABUJA – Former President Muhammadu Buhari has reaffirmed his commitment to the All Progressives Congress (APC), declaring that he remains a loyal member of the party that granted him two terms in office.

His statement comes amid the recent defection of former Kaduna State Governor Nasir el-Rufai, a close ally, from the APC to the Social Democratic Party (SDP). Speculation has also arisen about other political figures leaving the ruling party.

However, in a statement issued on Thursday by his media aide, Mallam Garba Shehu, Buhari dismissed any doubts about his political allegiance, emphasizing his dedication to the APC.

“Without referring to any individual, group, or ongoing discussions within the party, former President Muhammadu Buhari reiterates that he remains a committed member of the APC and wishes to be recognized as such,” the statement read.

“He wants to leave no one in doubt that he would never turn his back on the party that gave him two terms in office and will do whatever he can to promote and strengthen it.

“I am an APC member, and I like to be addressed as such. I will try to popularize the party by all means.”

Buhari further expressed gratitude for the party’s support throughout his presidency, calling it the highest honor he could receive. He emphasized that the efforts of APC’s founding members to establish a strong democratic party should be preserved and upheld.
