Keyamo questioned the basis of the claim on X, stating that the event was covered live by both local and international media.

The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council was inaugurated by President Tinubu on Wednesday at the State House Conference Centre in Abuja, with Vice-President Kashim Shettima and APC National Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda serving as vice-chairmen. The ceremony brought together party leaders and political figures to coordinate the President's re-election campaign.",
