Some members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have rejected the alleged appointment of writer, Toni Kan, as the spokesperson<\/a> to the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management, and Social Development, Sadiya Umar Farouq.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reports said the minister has appointed Kan, a critic of the President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s administration, as her media aide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, this development has not gone down well with some APC members who claimed the writer has strong ties with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
