THE FORMER NIGERIAN President, Muhammad Buhari had said that he is still a loyal member of ruling party, All Progressive Congress, APC.
In a message signed on Facebook by Garba Shehu, the ex-media aide to the president on Thursday, said he would like to be addressed as a loyal member of the party.
His message partly reads, “Without referring to any individual, cast of characters, or issues, principles and ideals currently being discussed by Party leaders at various levels, former President Muhammadu Buhari has reiterated what he’s said times without number, that he is a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) @OfficialAPCNg and would like to be addressed as a loyal member of the party”.

He further stated that he wants to leave no one in doubt that he would never turn his back on the Party that gave him two terms of office, and would do whatever he can to popularise it.
“I am an APC member and I like to be addressed as such. I will try to popularise the party by all means. He went on to add that at present, he has nothing but gratitude for the support that the Party gave him before and during his tenure as President, which he considers as the highest honour, and would never ask for anything more.
He further stated that the pains taken by the founding fathers to establish a strong party to protect our constitution, and democracy as a system of government, are worthy sacrifices that should be cherished and nurtured.
