Embattled Kano State Deputy Governor, Prof Hafiz Abubakar, on Thursday, dismissed as false rumours news making the rounds that he had defected from the All Progressives Congress to the Peoples Democratic Party.
While dismissing the speculation, Abubakar said he was still a member of the APC.
He attributed the false claim that he had crossed to the PDP as the handiwork of some miscreants, urging his supporters to disregard it.
“I have not resigned. I am still the Deputy Governor of Kano State and a member of the APC,’’ Abubakar said on Thursday.
