N2.3 Trillion Campaign Claim: Fabricated Letter Exposed Campaign of Disinformation Against Gov Sani - Kaduna Govt
Officials said the letter was fabricated and financially implausible, noting the claimed N2.3 trillion exceeds Kaduna State’s 2026 budget by more than twice.
- The Kaduna State Government has officially dismissed a viral, fabricated letter alleging Governor Uba Sani approved N2.3 trillion for an APC Presidential Campaign Council flag-off scheduled for Saturday, October 24, 2026.
- Dated October 18, 2026, the document titled "Notification for Preparations for the Grand Rally Flag Off" contains glaring irregularities, including the misspelling of the Governor's surname as "Uba Sai."
- Commissioner Malam Ahmed Maiyaki noted the alleged expenditure is financially implausible; the entire 2026 Kaduna State budget stands at N985.92 billion, making the claim more than twice impossible.
- Maiyaki described the letter as a "figment of the imagination" intended to discredit the administration, emphasizing that the government remains focused on transparent, prudent financial management.
- Authorities are investigating the letter's origin, with Maiyaki warning that deliberate fabrication of official correspondence is a criminal offense punishable under the law.
