APC-PCC accuses Atiku of using AI to discredit Kaduna campaign launch

The APC Presidential Campaign Council accused former vice president Atiku Abubakar and the ADC of seeking to discredit the party’s campaign launch in Kaduna on October 24, 2026, with deepfakes and counterfeit documents. Spokesperson Dele Alake said a picture of a security vehicle and a forged letter claiming Kaduna Governor Uba Sani approved 2.3 trillion naira for the rally had already circulated. The council said Kaduna’s budgets for 2024, 2025 and 2026 combined were still below that figure, and accused Atiku of sharing a distorted report on his social media accounts.
