Buhari, Tinubu for Ebonyi campaign kick off

President Muhammadu Buhari, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and National Chairman Adams Oshiomhole will lead other stalwarts to Ebonyi State on January 30 to kick off the party’s campaign.

The campaign is scheduled to hold at the Pa Ngele Oruta Township Stadium in Abakaliki.

The governorship candidate, Senator Sonni Ogbuoji, said the campaign would be an opportunity for Ebonyi people to know his plans to liberate the state from the stranglehold of the purveyors of poverty and underdevelopment.

He said: “I am on a liberation mission in Ebonyi State. I have always believed that public officers should work with the people to enthrone a collective sense of common purpose and direction for the benefit of all.

“This belief has not changed, instead it has been strengthened over the years, necessitating my desire to serve the people. For these people to come to support our campaign, despite their tight schedule, shows how significant the event is for the party.

“Ebonyi people should rest assured that the governance of prosperity and progress, which APC is bringing to the state, will reach everybody. We will ensure that our youths are sufficiently empowered and taken off the streets – the era of Ebonyi street hawkers will be a thing of the past when APC takes over in May.”
