Group promotes Makinde, organises horse race, prayer in Kano

The Northern Nigeria Support Group for Seyi Makinde has organised a special prayer and a horse race calling on Nigerians to support him as the next president of the country.

The group also described Makinde as a governor that has performed very well during his tenure as the governor of Oyo state.

National president of the group, Babangida Abubakar Haruna (Sardauna), while addressing newsmen in Kano on Saturday, stated that the group is rejoicing and enlightening the public that they are presenting a brand new candidate that has the capacity to change Nigeria for the better.

“There are so many things he can do for Nigeria judging by what he has done for in Oyo State where he has been a governor for almost eight years now.

“We have seen his capacity, we have seen the infrastructure he has put in place and we have seen a lot of achievements there,” he stated.

He praised him for being a man of his own words by remaining all through in his political party without decamping to another party despite the pressure.

“Look at his stance, he is somebody that has not decamped despite threats from from the ruling party. We have confidence in him because he is a man of his words and we are sure he will not betray Nigerians,” he added.

He called on Nigerians to try the young personality who has proven himself to be up and doing, saying that is the reason they are organising a special prayer as well as a horse race for him.

He said they are drawing attention of the northerners to consider governor Seyi, who is not from the ruling party, adding that there is an excellent relationship between them and Yoruba also.

“He is a young man, he has done it in Oyo State, we have all seen it. Go to Oyo State and see for yourself. He is an experienced person that has good records,” he stated.

He called on Nigerians to continue to pray for the best as their prayers will never be in vain, adding that power comes from God Almighty and he gives it to who he wills.
