According to the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, MrcGarba Shehu, Buhari is acting on the position of the law.

“The President has received very convincing advice on the position of the law as far as the situation in the party is concerned and has determined that the law is on the side of Victor Giadom as Acting National Chairman.

“Because he will always act in accordance with the law, the President will be attending the virtual meeting Giadom called for tomorrow afternoon.
