The Governor of Niger State, Babangida Aliyu has stated that he is not in support of any particular candidate for the 2015 elections, adding that his loyalty remained only to the Peoples Democratic Party.
Aliyu whilst addressing a delegation at the Government House in Minna, said he felt the need to clarify an earlier statement where he said that the PDP would win the Presidential elections and the Niger State gubernatorial elections.
He said it was important to clarify that he was not referring to any particular candidate.
His words: “I am not supporting any particular candidate for any position as of now because nobody knows who will reach 2015.”
“It is not a support for any individual, I am a party member, loyal one for that matter and I must sell my party and I will do it in such a way that Nigerians will buy it. I don’t know whether I will reach 2015, let alone supporting a particular candidate.”
