He revealed that the all the All Progressives Congress governors were only waiting for electioneering activities to begin for them to launch their campaign for the president.

He said: “The re-election bid of President Muhammadu Buhari, my mentor, come 2019 is a walkover, because the sanity he has brought to this country and the restoration of security of lives and property of the citizenry, among many other achievements, will speak for him.”
“For us in the APC Governors Forum, we are only waiting for the whistle to be blown so that we can do the needful to actualise this noble project of ensuring Mr. Presidents remains in Aso Rock beyond 2019”.
The governor also commended the DYA for the initiative and assured it of his unflinching support to enable it achieve the set goal.
Earlier national chairman of the group, Hon. Kassim Mohammed Kassim, had informed the governor that the DYA was a body of highly committed Nigerians who are out to ensure President Muhammadu Buhari’s re-election come 2019.
