Yobe State Governor, Alhaji Ibrahim Gaidam on Saturday explained that the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.) was excused from having a political campaign in his state because of the insecurity of the area.
Speaking at a grand rally of the APC in Damaturu, Gaidam said contrary to reports making the round that he does not see eye-to-eye with the presidential candidate of his party, the insecurity of the Maiduguri-Damaturu highway was the reason Buhari was excused.
He said he was amused by the fabrication of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) aimed at getting cheap political point that it was because of the sour relationship between him and Buhari.
Gaidam said the APC presidential candidate remains the candidate with proven integrity, insisting that “Buhari is a straight-forward person that Nigerians will benefit under his leadership,” calling on all Nigerians to come out en masse to ensure victory of the APC during the election next week.
