The City of Abuja was decorated with the posters of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal and his Deputy, Emeka Ihedioha as President and Vice Presidential aspirants on Saturday.
The Speaker and his deputy are both members of the PDP, but the posters making round have the logos of the All Progressive Congress(APC). Mr Tambuwal who reacted to the situation via his spokesman Imam Imam in a statement said:
“While we thank them for deeming us fit for elective office in the country, let it be known that since the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has not given the go-ahead for those interested in elective positions to start mobilisation, it is inappropriate for any person or group to print campaign posters and have them placed in strategic areas all over the country.
