\"SOKOTO:<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sokoto State Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal has reacted to reports that he had declared to run for president in 2023 with Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike as his running mate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report of the former House of Representatives Speaker\u2019s 2023 presidential ambition is being circulated on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But in a statement on Thursday through his media aide, Muhammad Bello, Tambuwal denied the claim, insisting he had not declared any intention for any position in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGovernor\u00a0Tambuwal<\/a>\u00a0has not declared his political intention in recent times, so the news about his running for the highest political office is a figment of the imagination of some overzealous social media activists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor this reason, the governor dissociates himself from such fabricated misinformation and misleading reportage,\u201d Bello said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added that Governor Tambuwal\u2019s focus remained to ensure good governance and to deliver dividends of democracy to the people of Sokoto.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
