Former Speaker, Federal House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara is now at war with former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal.

The duo who are members of Northern Christians in the All Progressives Congress (APC) are fighting over the endorsement of Peter Obi by Babachir Lawal.

Dogara and eight members of the group in a statement said:

“We want to draw the attention of the general public to the recent position canvassed by our Chairman, Engr B D Lawal, as the position of our Group.”

“We wish to state that necessary consultations have been concluded, and based on manifestly unassailable empirical data, the group is poised to adopt a position which will be made known to the public at an interfaith event to be held very soon.”

“Suffice to say that no one in the group including the Chairman has been mandated to speak to the public about our position at this material time.”

“Based on our modus operandi, our position was meant to be presented to the general public at the event above referred to. That has not changed.”

“Consequently, the decision to endorse a particular candidate and the statement credited to the chairman are solely the decision and views of the Chairman which he is absolutely entitled to but not that of the group.

“We hope this statement clears all the querries most of us have been inundated with on this all important subject matter.”
