He said: “What we have done in Kaduna state in the last three years has shown that APC as a party is the one that loves the masses and assists the masses; not a party that will take public fund and share among the rich. That is why we want you people to go out and tell the people to vote President Muhammadu Buhari again.
“So, when it is time to launch President Muhammadu Buhari’s campaign in Kaduna, people should come for the whole world to see that it is not Niger Republic people that are disguising as Nigerians.
"We should vote for President Muhammadu Buhari and all the APC candidates. In Kaduna, we will support APC from top to bottom."
The governor said the task in 2019 is to continue to work towards the upliftment of the people as they cannot “allow the people whose ideology is looting to return to power.”
Meanwhile, Governor Nasir El-Rufai said his reelection in the 2019 Kaduna state governorship poll is almost a done deal despite all the people that have been upset by some policies of his administration.
Speaking as a special guest at the 2018 National Council on Finance and Economic Development (NACOFED) conference which held in Kaduna on Monday, November 26, El-Rufai said getting reelected as the governor of the state is not paramount in his agenda, but doing the right thing is, The Cable reports.
