The president, Mohammadu Buhari is now fully set to participate in the campaign of Bola Tinubu, the Presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC).
The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign council said the President will attend at least 10 presidential rallies.
Festus Keyamo, the party’s campaign spokesperson, said in a statement on Friday morning that Buhari would be available to wave the broom and mobilize voters in Adamawa on January 9, Yobe on January 10, Sokoto on January 16, Kwara on January 17, and Ogun on January 25, among other places.
According to Keyamo, the President will also be present in person at the rallies in Cross River on January 30, Nasarawa on February 4, Katsina on February 6, and Imo on February 14.
Prior to the election on February 25, Buhari will also participate in the APC presidential campaign’s grand finale in Lagos on February 18.
On November 15, 2022, the President attended the launch of the APC presidential campaign in Jos, the Plateau State capital. He then stayed away from campaign activities, fueling speculation that he had little or no commitment to the APC’s presidential ticket of Bola Tinubu and Kashim Shettima.
Buhari’s decision to rejoin the campaign has immediately sparked excitement in the APC Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), with Mr Keyamo describing the development as the president’s demonstration of “further personal commitment to the election of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu”.
“The PCC expresses its profound gratitude to President Buhari, the leader of our great Party, for his sterling and inspirational leadership at this time and for galvanizing our teeming members and supporters across the country.
“We urge our party faithful and supporters to turn out en masse, as usual, in the forthcoming campaign rallies.
“The zero hour is nigh; our spirits must be high; we must not relent in this collective march to our victory that is divinely ordained.”
