Hon Bashir Bolarinwa, the state APC chairman, in his remark at the event, urged aggrieved members of the party to forget their grievances and work for the success of the party at polls.

“The crowd that accompanied us from Post Office to this place is amazing. It is an assurance that Kwarans are ready for the re-election of President Buhari.

“We are also using this medium to empower some of our members. Kwara state is different from other states.

“We have been suffering for so long. People need to be empowered, that is why we are giving out some items to some people today.

“We resolved to show our members a specimen of what a voter’s card looks like so that they know how. In other words, we are embarking on voters’ education, so that they know how to vote on election. Kwarans are ready. We don’t need any message for them and it has started. We will not stop until election days.”

Abdulkarim Popoola, a youth leader, said the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari and his Vice Prof Yemi Osibajo is guaranteed.

Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming?
