President Muhammadu Buhari is seeking re-election in the presidential election scheduled to hold on Saturday, February 16.
Speaking at the national headquarters of the National Union of Road Transport Workers National (NURTW) in Abuja, Mrs Buhari, who heads the All Progressives Congress (APC) Women and Youth Presidential Campaign Team, said the president has led by example.
Mrs Buhari, who was represented by the chairman, Central Working Committee of the APC Women and Youth Presidential Campaign Team, Brig-Gen Buba Marwa (Rtd), stressed that the visit to the NURTW was to discuss governance with the union’s leadership and steps be taken by the Buhari administration to address the plight of the common man.
She said President Buhari is a man of integrity. This, she added, was the secret of his success in governance.
“The President is up and doing and he had been able to curtail the Boko Haram menace. He has worked, and he is working very hard.
“By the time his mandate is renewed by Nigerians in the coming election, it will be better for us all,” she said.
NURTW national president, Najeem Yasin, while appreciating the team for the visit, acknowledged that Buhari had done well for the country in terms of delivering democracy dividends.
“On behalf of members of the NURTW, we commend Buhari for the good work he is doing, especially with regards to road construction across the country,” Mr Yasin said.
He assured that members of the union would on Saturday, exercise their franchise by voting for the right candidate.
Yasin added that the union had already signed a memorandum of understanding with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to assist in distributing electoral materials to states ahead of the election.
