By Abdullahi Ahmad Bamalli
The presidential campaign council of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has disclosed that President Muhammadu Buhari will attend 10 rallies of Bola Tinubu, the party’s presidential candidate.
The president was in attendance when Tinubu kicked off his campaign with a rally in Jos, the capital of Plateau, in November 2022, but has not been part of the campaign since then.
However, in a statement released on Friday, Festus Keyamo, spokesperson of the APC campaign council, said Buhari has provided “sterling and inspirational leadership” for the APC.
