President Buhari has disclosed how he has been fighting corruption and admitted that it has not been easy.
Buhari, while addressing the mammoth crowd of party supporters and admirers who thronged the 12,000 capacity Ekiti Parapo pavilion, venue of the rally, said he was quite conscious of the promises he made while contesting four years ago, particularly the ones that have to do with corruption, insecurity and economic diversification.
His words: “We are fighting corruption but it has not been easy. But we told the security agencies to keep tab on those on our watch list and ensure that no stone is left unturned to ensuring that those who have cases to answer do not escape justice.
“As part of our promises, we are building roads, rail lines, fighting corruption. We introduced Treasury Single Account and increased power supply, so Nigerians can have their own businesses.
“I want to be grateful to Ekiti voters, because the two times I came here, I achieved successes. I came here in 2014 and I also came here to campaign for Fayemi, he won the governorship election, so I thank you.”
Present at the rally were: Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, governors Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti), Gboyega Oyetola (Osun), Abiola Ajimobi (Oyo), Rotimi Akeredolu (Ondo), Ibikunle Amosun (Ogun), former All Progressives Congress, APC, interim National Chairman, Chief Bisi Akande, Mr. Olusola Oke, among others.
Earlier during a meeting with Ekiti Obas, Buhari pleaded with the monarchs to support his reelection bid and government for sustainable peace in Ekiti State and beyond.
