One Million APC Supporters Expected To Attend Tinubu's Rally In Zamfara Today.

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu will today board his presidential campaign train to Gusau in Zamfara state, to end a hectic week of electioneering.

As usual, he will go with his vice-presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima.

No fewer than one million members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) will be mobilised to welcome Tinubu and Shettima, said the state APC Publicity Secretary, Mr Yusuf Idris.

“For the Saturday’s rally, over one million persons are expected to come from the 14 local government areas of the state.

“As you can see, the state capital, Gusau, is already agog and wearing a new look in preparation for our candidate’s visit on Saturday.

“Zamfara is for APC and APC is for Zamfara,” he said.

“The Zamfara branch of the APC Presidential Campaign Council has issued appointment letters to over 2,000 top party leaders drawn from all 14 local government areas of the state to promote the candidature of the APC Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, in the state.

“The letters were issued to all the committee members, who were drawn from various interest groups and organisations by the coordinator of the PCC in Zamfara State, Senator Kabiru Marafa.

“The issuance of the letters was a prelude to Tinubu’s campaign rally in the state, scheduled for Saturday,° Idris said.

He noted that the 2,000 contact persons were carefully selected to take the message of Tinubu and APC to all the nooks and crannies of the state.

He assured them that the reward system of APC is guaranteed after the hopeful inauguration of Tinubu on May 29.

For the Tinubu campaign, the week started on Monday in Bauchi, where President Muhammadu Buhari presented Tinubu to the people of the state and notably called him, Mr President.

On Tuesday, the campaign moved to Umuahia in Abia state, where Tinubu promised to turn the state into an export hub of the country.

Ogun hosted the APC candidate on Wednesday. Tinubu seized the occasion to advert government’s mind to the twin crisis of fuel and new naira notes shortages.

On Thursday, Tinubu moved to Markurdi in Benue state, where the APC faithful gave him a colourful reception and Tiv cultural music.

From Markurdi, Tinubu also left for Daura in Katsina state, where he also met President Muhammadu Buhari, behind close doors.

It was believed they spoke on how the President could resolve the lingering scarcity of fuel and currency shortages.

The campaign took a break on friday
