The Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has announced that, in its revised campaign timetable, President Muhammadu Buhari has indicated his readiness to join the ruling party’s presidential campaign train.
Thus, President Buhari will be present at some of the forthcoming APC presidential campaign rallies.
Festus Keyamo, the director of Public Affairs and chief spokesperson of the Bola Tinubu/Kashim Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, disclosed this in a statement on Friday.
It would be recalled that Buhari, the chairman of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, had earlier attended the flag-off of the presidential campaign in Jos, Plateau state, on the 15th of November, 2022. Since then he has not been seen in Tinubu’s rallies.
“In the latest campaign time table released on 5th January 2023, the President is billed to join the campaign train in at least ten states.
“The states are Adamawa state on the 9th of January; Yobe atate on the 10th of January; Sokoto state on the 16th of January; Kwara state on the 17th of January; Ogun state on the 25th of January; Cross Rivers state on the 30th of January; Nassarawa state on the 4th of February; Katsina state on the 6th of February; Imo state on the 14th of February and the grand finale in Lagos state on the 18th of February.
“The Presidential Campaign Council 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,” the statement read in part.
