The minister’s wife further cited the east-west road, schools’ feeding system and trains in the state.

In her remarks, Aisha Buhari, wife of the president, who was represented by the wife of the vice president, Dolapo Osibajo, urged youths to shun all temptations to be used to perpetrate electoral violence.

Mrs Buhari implored them to ensure that their votes were counted at the polling units.

The president’s wife pointed out that her husband was interested in women and youth, adding: “That was why the government engaged more in the home grown school feeding programmes, and N-Power programmes, among others.”

She continued: “The present administration is also helping in small loans for business owners, as they are putting together policies to ensure that there is the ease of doing business in the country.”

Buhari disclosed this during the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign rally which held inside the main bowl of the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium in Enugu.

Buhari said it would be difficult for him to convince the Federal Executive Council (FEC) members for the approval of the projects.
