The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) has not endorsed Asiwaju Bola Tinubu or any presidential aspirant for the 2023 General Election.
The National Secretary of MACBAN, Alhaji Baba Ngelzarma, made this known in a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday.
Ngelzarma said the association respects the aspirations of all presidential aspirants, although it is not yet time to single out an individual for support.
He said: “The attention of the MACBAN National Headquarters has been drawn to stories in the media claiming that we have endorsed the presidential aspiration of Senator Ahmed Tinubu.
“We want to make it clear that the association has not endorsed any candidate.
“Those who endorsed Tinubu are doing so as individuals, as MACBAN should not in anyway be dragged into the politics of endorsement at this stage,” Ngelzarma said.
The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, had on Monday, Jan uary10, formally informed President Muhammadu Buhari of his presidential ambition in 2023.
Tinubu, who spoke after a closed-door meeting with Buhari at the State House, Abuja, said though he made his intention known to the president, he would continue to consult with Nigerians.
He dismissed the assertion that “a kingmaker cannot become a king”, saying he would like to take over from President Buhari in 2023 to continue with the good works of the ruling APC.
