Bukola Saraki, the former president of the Senate, has denied rumors that he would join the opposition coalition in preparation for the 2027 presidential election.

Ahead to the 2027 election, Saraki characterized the reports as skewed views and fabrications regarding his political affiliations and inclinations.

The former governor of Kwara State, Yusuph Olaniyonu, of the Abubakar Bukola Saraki Media Office, advised Nigerians to ignore the news in a statement.

According to him, the opposition in Kwara State allegedly created a new untruth by fabricating quotes and their own graphic design based on the tale.

The statement reads: “It should be noted that the reporter of the story quoted unnamed sources and faceless individuals who he claimed attended a meeting with Dr. Saraki. He also sought the opinions of people who he did not tell the detail of the story he wanted them to respond to.

“We believe his story came from his misconception of why Dr Saraki has refused to associate with or comment on the ongoing efforts by some politicians to form a coalition. It is equally obvious that he simply decided to package as a news story the permutations, projections, and calculations of some individuals who believe they could proffer a reason for the quiet stance of the former Senate President.

“Anybody who has associated closely with Dr. Saraki will know that either in the public or private space, he does not speak carelessly and in a manner that can expose him to ridicule.

“He is always a careful and frugal speaker. The views expressed in that news story and the concocted graphic design in circulation do not represent the position of Dr. Saraki. He has nothing to do with them.

“We, therefore, call on well-meaning Nigerians to disregard and ignore the false claims contained either in the story published by the newspaper or the warped version of it being circulated online by elements of the opposition in Kwara State.”
