President Muhammadu Buhari
The Etsu Patigi, Patigi Local Government Area of Kwara State, Alhaji Ibrahim Chatta-Umar, has said the people will vote for President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019.
Alhaji Chatta-Umar spoke when he received youths from Lade, Kpada and Patigi districts in his palace. The youth held a rally in support of President Buhari’s re-election in 2019.
The monarch said the achievements of Buhari’s administration endeared him to his people, which necessitated the need for all to support him.
According to him, the Patigi-Share and Patigi- Kpada roads, which have been in deplorable conditions for about two decades, are being built.
The monarch thanked Buhari for touching the lives of his subjects and urged the Federal Government to do more.
“Our roads have been there for 20 years with no repairs, and then within the three years that he came on board, the road is being rebuilt.”
Coordinator of the Patigi for Buhari 2019 Muhammed Baba-Mahmud said the people remained grateful to President Buhari.
Baba-Mahmud identified major achievements to include reconstruction of Patigi-Share/Patigi-Kpada roads; over 400 N-Power beneficiaries from Patigi council, about 1,200 of the Household Upliftment Programme, fight against corruption, improved security, improved power supply and bumper harvest for farmers due to access to fertiliser.
