Paul Ibe, the media adviser to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the February 25 election, Atiku Abubakar, has denied media reports linking him with the endorsement of an aspirant for the Kogi State governorship election billed for November 11 this year.
Describing the reports as “false and gross fabrication,” he noted that the process of selecting a standard bearer must be determined by the people and not an individual, no matter how powerful.
