He said: “The mammoth crowd you are seeing here today is an assurance that President Buhari will win massively across the 21 local government areas of Kogi.

“It is a very successful rally today as you can see that it is a massive endorsement for our dear President, just as he won massively in Kogi in 2015.

“We are sure that Buhari will garner more votes, as we now have a governor that people of Kogi believes in, who has also performed well in security, infrastructure, health, education, among others.

“The ovation that Mr President’s statement received today on the rivatilisation of Ajaokuta Steel, shows that our people are desirous of having a rejuvenated Ajaokuta Steel Company.

“It is a very big policy statement as the President has promised to make sure that Ajaokuta comes back to life, employ our people, and use the Steel products for the development of the nation’s infrastructure.”

Fanwo, who doubles as the director general, media and publicity to Governor Yahaya Bello, said that the Itakpe to Warri rail line that had been rejuvenated was one of the things that had endeared Buhari to Kogi people.

He said: “Our governor has also been able to complement the achievements of President Buhari in Kogi, and that is why our people will vote massively for APC.

“I am calling on our people to come out en masse to vote Buhari and all other APC Candidates in February 16 and March 2, general elections, and to make sure that Buhari is re-elected for projects’ continuity."

He, however, advised the electorate to shun any form of violence saying “violence does us no good in an election irrespective of party."

In his words: “We must eschew violence, conduct ourselves well and ensure that politicians who do not use their children for thuggery do not end up using our children for such.”

Ademola Bello-Destiny, the APC candidate for Mopamuro State House of Assembly constituency, told NAN that the large turnout for the rally was a sign for Nigerians to know that Kogi is for Buhari.

He said: “I am giving you the assurance that in Mopamuro LGA, President Buhari will have 85 per cent votes across all the wards.”

Recall that Legit.ng earlier reported that Buhari arrived Kogi on Wednesday, January 16, to attend the APC's presidential campaign rally in the state.

The special adviser on media and publicity to the president, Femi Adesina, disclosed that the president attended the rally with the APC national president, Adams Oshiomhole; the Kogi state governor, Yahaya Bello and the governor of Plateau state, Simon Lalong.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? 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? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari.
