Thousands of supporters of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, on Saturday, stormed Maiduguri, the Borno state capital to attend a rally in support of its presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima, a former governor of the state (2011 to 2019).
Tinubu and his team of the Presidential Campaign Council, PCC, led by the National Chairman of the APC, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, and the governor of Jigawa state, Alhaji Abubakar Badaru, who represented the Director General of the Campaign Team, Governor Simon Lalong, were at the Shehu of Borno’s palace as a first point of call.
While addressing the mammoth crowd at the Elkanemi Sports Centre in Maiduguri, the presidential candidate, Tinubu, vowed to run a true government of the people by the people and for the people if elected in next Saturday’s election.
He reiterated that he would run a government of hard work, honesty and accountability in managing the country’s affairs.
“Borno people, I am very grateful to you all for turning out en masse to welcome us.
“If elected as your President, I promise to run a true government of the people by the people and for the people.
“I would run a government of hard work, honesty and accountability in managing the country’s affairs,” Tinubu said.
