N2.3 trillion campaign claim: Fabricated letter exposed campaign of disinformation against Gov Sani - Kaduna govt

The Kaduna State Government has exposed a fabricated letter circulating on social media, which falsely claims that Governor Uba Sani approved and released N2.3 trillion for the APC 2027 presidential campaign. The Honourable Commissioner for Information and Culture, Malam Ahmed Maiyaki, described the document as a deliberate attempt to undermine the Governor's reputation for fiscal prudence.

The letter, dated October 18, 2026, falsely states that Governor Sani budgeted and released the massive sum for a flag-off ceremony scheduled for October 24, 2026. However, the current 2026 Kaduna State budget is only N985.92 billion, making the claimed expenditure more than twice the annual budget figures. The government noted inconsistencies in the letter, such as the misspelling of the Governor's name and irregularities in its presentation.

They also highlighted the misuse of the Governor's signature, which was not authorized. The Kaduna State Government categorically denies any authorship or approval of the letter, emphasizing that Governor Sani has consistently demonstrated fiscal discipline and responsible governance. They warn against the emerging pattern of coordinated misinformation aimed at discrediting the Governor and his administration ahead of the 2027 general elections.
