Aminu Zang, a prominent chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Plateau State, has declined an appointment to the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2027 Presidential and Governorship Campaign Council. The inclusion of Zang, who was listed as number 254 on the Central Planning Committee, came as a surprise to him as he was neither consulted nor informed about his name's addition to the committee.

In a statement titled "Clarification on My Inclusion in the 2027 Plateau State Presidential and Governorship Campaign Council – Central Planning Committee (CPC)," Zang emphasized his unwavering commitment to the PDP and the Rainbow Coalition. While acknowledging the consideration given to him, Zang reiterates his dedication to the PDP, asserting that he remains a steadfast member of the opposition party.

Zang further cautioned political stakeholders, party members, and the public to maintain peace, tolerance, civility, and political decorum as they approach the 2027 general elections. He clarified his stance by stating his support for Wike's position that Tinubu should return but firmly opposes the idea of appointing him as the governor.

Zang's campaign council association with the PDP remains intact, as he declared, "Of course, we have a candidate in the PDP, Chief Kefas Wungak Ropshik."
