The nationwide campaign tour of the presidential candidate of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari, has berthed in the
commercial city of Aba in Abia state.
He paid a courtesy visit to the palace of the Enyi of Aba, where he
was conferred with the traditional title of Ogbuagu 1 of Aba (The lion
killer) by the monarch, who adorned him with coral beads, a traditional
attire and a red cap.
Subsequently, Buhari and his entourage walked through some streets in
Aba, and visited the popular Ariaria market, where he visited a
groundnut seller’s stall to patronize her.
The entourage of the erstwhile head of state was made up of the
director-general of his campaign organisation, Gov. Rotimi Amaechi and
the national chairman of the APC, John Odigie-Oyegun.
Others were APC national leader, Ogbonnaya Onu, zonal coordinator of
the Buhari campaign for the South East, Chris Ngige, and Imo state
governor, Rochas Okorocha.
