<h4>Former Vice President Disowns Spokesman</h4>
<p> ;</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a></strong> reports that former Vice President Namadi Sambo has stated that Mr. Umar Sani is no longer his spokesman and that all public opinions expressed by Sani are his personal views.<br />
This was contained in a statement issued by Yinka Ibrahim, Personal Aide to the Former Vice President, Arc Mohammed Namadi Sambo, and made available to newsmen in Kaduna on Sunday.<br />
The statement noted that “Umar, also known as ‘Dekat,’ has recently been very vocal in expressing his political views. Unfortunately, some media reports continue to attribute those opinions to the former Vice President.”<br />
It advised media organisations to note that “Mr. Sani is no longer authorized to speak for the former Vice President.”<br />
It further emphasized that it should be placed on record, once again, that Umar Sani is no longer authorized to speak on behalf of former Vice President Namadi Sambo.<br />
The statement added: “It has come to our attention that recent media reports have mistakenly attributed Mr. Sani’s personal views to former Vice President Sambo.<br />
“We categorically refute these misrepresentations. The former Vice President’s office maintains that only statements released through its designated official channels carry the weight of his views and stance on issues.<br />
“We acknowledge that Mr. Sani previously served as Director General of Media and Publicity and as Senior Special Assistant on Media during the tenure of former <a href="https://tribuneonlineng.com/">Vice President Sambo</a>—first as Governor of Kaduna State and later as Vice President of Nigeria.<br />
“However, since 2016, Mr. Sani has ceased to be associated with the former Vice President’s official communications. Any public statements or opinions now expressed by Umar Sani are solely his own and do not represent, endorse, or reflect the views of former Vice President Sambo.<br />
“We urge all media outlets and members of the public to disregard any statements or political opinions attributed to former Vice President Sambo through the medium of Umar Sani. Accurate public discourse is essential, and only verified communications issued by our office should be considered authoritative.<br />
“For any further inquiries or official clarifications, please contact our office directly,” the statement concluded.</p>
