The Campaign Team of Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has refuted claims that his campaign as he seeks to lead the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as Flagbearer is being funded by some Islamic group.

One David Humdeyin, a journalist in Nigeria is said to have stated that the Bawumia Campaign is being funded by some Islamic group in Nigeria called the ACF.

The same narrative has been copied by some persons and groups in Ghana on social media.

But a statement issued by Dr. Bawumia’s Spokesperson, Dr. Gideon Boako stated that this narrative is obviously false, fabricated, and only serves the propaganda purposes of its promoters.

“For the avoidance of doubt, the Bawumia Campaign has no funding or any linkage with any Islamic group in Nigeria or anywhere else.

“We also note that the said David Humdeyin has demonstrated a penchant for making similar claims against some persons and groups in Nigeria without any basis whatsoever.”

It added that “The Bawumia Campaign is focused and will not be distracted by such vain untruths.The Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has been very diligent and transparent from his days as a scholar, banker, and politician throughout his life and will not depart from these now and forever.”
