President Buhari
Rep. Umar Bago (APC-Chanchaga) says he will support the re-election
of President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Abubakar Bello of Niger with
100 cars.
Bago, who stated this on Tuesday in an interview with the News
Agency of Nigeria in Minna, said that the two leaders remained the only
credible choices in the 2019 elections.
He urged the electorate to vote for continuity in order to
consolidate on the ongoing changes that would set the Nation on the path
of progress.
“President Buhari has proved beyond reasonable doubt to be
honest, sincere and committed to the yearnings and aspirations of
Nigerians irrespective of political, tribal and religious differences.
“I am supporting the re-election campaign team of President
Buhari and that of Gov. Abubakar Bello with 100 cars for massive
sensitisation of the people of Niger,” he said.
The lawmaker said the vehicles would be distributed at a grand rally tagged, “Niger Na Buhari Da LoLo Ne” in Minna.
Bago said that the vehicles would be given to officials of the APC
and other organisations to disseminate the numerous achievements
recorded by Buhari and Bello.
He said in the more than three years of the APC administration, the
two have shown leadership style that Nigerians and the people of Niger
were proud of.
Bago added that the gesture was part of his support to the two
leaders whom he described as worthy ambassadors of the people and the
party.
“I want to make it categorically clear that this gesture is
stemmed out of my genuine love and commitment to the course of
governance of our dear country and my state in particular.
‘’There is no gainsaying the fact that President Muhammadu
Buhari has in the last three years done what other presidents did not
achieve within a similar period.
“We are all witnesses to the massive infrastructural
development going on in different parts of the country, especially
construction and rehabilitation of roads.
“We are also witnesses to the unprecedented development that
Gov. Abubakar Bello has brought to Niger State within these few years
that he got the opportunity to govern our dear state.
“I feel that these two leaders should be supported by every well-meaning Nigerian that has genuine love for the country.
“If for nothing, I believe we should support them so that we will continue to enjoy good governance in the next four years,” he said.
