Muhammadu Buhari, presidential candidate of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), arrived Abuja, the federal capital territory, this
morning.Amid a large crowd at Nnamdi Azikiwe International airport,
Buhari to journalists before heading for a waiting car that took him
away. Journalists and party supporters had converged on the airport as
early as 4:30am awaiting his arrival.Reacting to an
observation that his absence had cost his party “a lot” in the campaign,
Buhari said: I don’t think so. One man does not make a party. Remember
that some parties came together to form this party, so one man cannot
make the party.”
Buhari afterwards left the scene amid a lot of shoving and pushing from
over-zealous security men, which infuriated journalists. Garba Shehu,
APC presidential campaign spokesman, told GoldmyneTV that with the
return of Buhari, the campaign would continue.
“We may likely be in Onitsha tomorrow for a town hall meeting and a road
show,” he said. “We are still working out the details of the schedule
of the campaign.”
