Vote APC From Top To Bottom – Buhari To Nigerians

President Muhammadu Buhari has appealed to Nigerians to vote candidates of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) from the Presidential, National Assembly, Governorship to state Assemblies in the next month general elections.

President Buhari made the appeal on Thursday at the Warri Township Stadium, during the flag-off of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential/governorship campaign/mega rally in Delta state.

Speaking, Buhari said that his administration, would continue to give attention to issues of security and the economy, noting that security would allow for a proper management of the nation, which would eventually give room for a thriving economy.

An elated Buhari said that if reelected next month,  he would redouble his effort in his administration’s fight against corruption even as he assured the people of Niger Delta region  that his promise to develop the region would continue to receive serious attention.

“I assure you, the fundamental objectives we have identified and campaigned on in 2015 are still relevant; the country has to be secured to be properly managed and proper management means doing well in the economy. We have a young population, most of them unemployed, this is of great concern.

“I assure you that the programme mentioned here about the development of the Niger Delta will be taken even more seriously. I expect you to please cooperate and vote APC from top to bottom. APC from top to bottom”, the president said.

“In the fight against corruption, I assure you that all those who have fraudulently enriched themselves when they were entrusted with public funds, we will eventually get them and deal with them. We are doing it, we will continue to do it and I assure you, we will not abuse your trust, he added.
