It is time to save Nigeria from collapse,” Daily Nigerian quoted Oche as saying.
former Kano state governor and PDP presidential aspirant, Malam Ibrahim Shekarau, expressed confidence that the huge number of presidential aspirants vying for the party’s ticket in the 2019 presidential election would not lead to the party’s implosion.
