Gov Bagudu  To Citizens: Ensure Tinubu Gets More Votes In Kebbi Than Lagos

Governor Abubakar Atiku Bagudu  has urged voters  in Kebbi state to  ensure that the APC presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and his running mate,  Senator Kashim Shatima  get more votes  in the state than  Lagos state.

‘In 2019, Kebbi state gave President Muhammadu Buhari over 581,000 votes, while Lagos state gave him about 580,000 votes.

This enviable feat should be replicated on Saturday and I humbly trust the people of Kebbi state that they will graciously do so’ he said.

Bagudu’s Special Adviser on Media, Mr Yahaya Sarki noted in a statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com that the governor said this in Birnin Kebbi  during  the grand finale of the APC campaign rally  on Wednesday.

The Chairman of the APC Governors’ Forum noted that electing Tinubu and Shettima  as president and Vice President respectively would bolster the unity and socioeconomic prosperity of the country.

‘This will help to attract more dividends of democracy to the North and Kebbi state in particular.

The last seven and a half years have been turbulent globally but Nigeria and Kebbi state have fared better.

This was all courtesy of the APC-led Federal Government and Kebbi state which should be sustained by massively voting for the party’s candidates from top to bottom’ Bagudu added.

He described Tinubu as a tested and trusted ally and  a friend of the North, urging that he should be trusted and rewarded.

 Governor Bagudu  recalled Tinubu’s  invaluable  role in the formation of APC in 2014 and the emergence of Buhari as  candidate as well as  his eventual  election victory in 2015 and 2019.

He called Tinubu and Shatima  workaholics and core patriots who would take Nigeria to greater heights.

The  governor urged the people of the state to peacefully come out en masse and cast their votes for all APC candidates.

‘After voting, we should all be patient and guard our votes. This is to ensure that our votes really count.

BVAS has been enhanced; the efficiency and speed of the voting process have improved. We should be patient, peaceful and persevering throughout the process’ Bagudu said.

He commended the  Director General  if the state APC  Campaign Council, Alhaji Saidu Nasamu Dakingari and  other members of the campaign council for a diligent job while acknowledging  the sustained support of the security and the media and other stakeholders in the state.
