Doubts have continued to trail the North Central presidential campaign inauguration of the presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change, Gen. Muhammed Buhari (retd.), because of controversies surrounding the party’s proposed venue.
The rally which was scheduled to hold in Minna, the capital of Niger State, on Thursday ran into a serious hitch following issues relating to the use of revenue.
According to a document containing the itinerary of Buhari, the presidential candidate was expected to tour some of the cities in the state before inaugurating his campaign.
He was supposed to visit Suleja, Lapai, Agaie and Bida before proceeding to Minna for the event after paying a courtesy visit to the Governor of the state, Dr. Babangida Aliyu.
His route was deliberately planned to enable him stop over and pay courtesy visits to the eight emirates in the state including the Etsu of Nupe and state Chairman of Traditional Council, Dr. Abubakar Yahaya.
