Many Nigerians trooped out to welcome Senate President, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki at Ilorin International Airport.
Saraki is undoubtedly the most popular politician in Kwara State where he was governor for 8 years. He is also from an influential family that has influenced political affairs in the state.
The pictures here are a confirmation of his popularity and reputation which remains intact despite the allegations of corruption and highhandedness in senate affairs trailing him.
He could be seen greeting the mammoth crowd from the roof of his car as they flaunted placards in adoration of his person. The 2019 presidential election might be surprising with rumours that Saraki has interests in President Muhammadu Buhari's job.
