Senate President, Ahmad Lawan
Senate President Ahmad Lawan has debunked reports stating that he is in support of a tenure extension for President Muhammadu Buhari.
The senate president said this in a statement released by his media aide Ola Awoniyi, that the comment linked to him is the handiwork of mischief-makers.
Lawan Said;
“The Office of the President of the Senate has noted a tweet by one Cmr Mayor attributing a fabricated statement to the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan.
“In the mischievous tweet, the Senate President was quoted as saying he “won’t mind a constitutional amendment to allow unlimited term of office for President if President Buhari wishes to remain in office beyond 2023.”
“Our initial reaction was to ignore the ignoble mischief especially since it is not new, having been posted two years ago on 27 March 2019.
“But because the tweet has been trending again on social media, it becomes necessary to issue a formal rebuttal of its purport.
“We therefore say categorically that the Senate President has never made any such statement, before or after 2019.
“The old tweet which was entirely the handiwork of mischief makers is now being circulated again on social media by purveyors of fake news
“The 1999 Constitution has a firm position on the tenure of the President that reflects the popular stand of Nigerians”
