The statement read;

“Those spreading the fake news against our National Chairman have been doing so for quite some months now and we are sure it is all politically-motivated and targeted at the good name our leader has built for decades as a fearless democrat. 

“The agenda of this shadowy group, which is bent on ridiculing the image and integrity of our National President, is to score cheap political points.

“The AYCF’s National President, our own vocal Shettima Yerima has been one of the leading lights in the advocacy for restructuring and good governance.
