He warned all party members against using the name of the party to engage lawyers to write a petition.

“The petition written by the APC concerned group against the sitting senator on the issue of ₦12.5 billion constituency fund is not from us and we disassociate ourselves from it.

“I want to sound a note of warning to every member of this party that on no account should anybody in the name of our party engage any lawyer for any purpose that seems to give an impression that the party is behind it,” he said.
