By Daniel Dafe
The Senate President, Ahmad Lawan has reacted to a report circulating online by the Sahara Reporters with regards to the APC candidature for the 2023 senatorial election in Yobe North.
The report stated that the Senate President made a u-turn on his earlier decision not to appeal the judgement of the Federal High Court, Damaturu in Yobe State which voided his candidature for the election.
In a statement on Saturday signed by his Special Adviser (Media),
Ola Awoniyi, the President of the Senate, said: “The report is utter falsehood. It is just another fabrication by the discredited habitual purveyor of fake and malicious news – Sahara Reporters.”
“For the umpteenth time, we want to emphasize that the Senate President has no intention to appeal against the court judgement.

“If anybody is dissatisfied and decides to challenge the verdict of the court, it has nothing to do with the Senate President.
“The Senate President has made his own position public and has since moved on. He is a man of his words,” the statement added.
Lawan urgent “reasonable members of the public to accord the fake Sahara Reporters’ report nothing other than the contempt it deserves.”
