The All Progressives Congress (APC) has urged Nigerians to disregard its membership slip that has gone viral featuring the name and picture of the dreaded terrorist, Mohammed Bello Turji, describing it as fake.
In a statement on Tuesday, National Publicity Secretary (NPS) of the party Barr. Felix Morka said the alleged registration of the dreaded terrorist, Turji in the ongoing APC Electronic Registration and Validation Exercise was done by mischief makers.
“The attention of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been drawn to a fake “APC membership slip” in circulation on social media falsely suggesting that a despicable and notorious terrorist, Mohammed Bello Turji, was registered as a member of our Party in the ongoing APC Electronic Registration and Validation Exercise.
“The membership slip is a fabrication, fake and without any association or link, whatsoever, with our membership register and database.
“All digital parameters represented on the fake slip bear no connection to our Party’s membership register. For example, the slip purports to be registered in a nonexistent “Ward 13” of Shinkafi Local Government Area of Zamfara State which only has 10 Wards. All other information paraded on the fake slip are nonexistent and certainly not contained in our membership database.
“This vile fabrication is the handiwork of mischief makers out to hoodwink and confuse members of the public for their own sinister objectives”.
The party urged party faithful and the general public to disregard the document which it described as highly offensive in its entirety.
