Jigawa State Governor, Muhammadu Badaru, says President Muhammadu Buhari is honest, transparent and “sleeps with Nigerians at heart”.
Badaru said President Buhari had done well for Nigerians in ensuring infrastructural development to fast-track sustainable social and economic development in the country.
He praised Buhari for his economic policies, particularly the implementation of the agriculture transformation and National Social Investment Programme (NSIP).
The Jigawa governor stated this while speaking at the reception for Mrs Grace Bent, a former senator representing Adamawa south, who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress on Saturday in Yola, Adamawa State capital.
According to the Jigawa governor, the Buhari administration has made giant strides towards improving road, rail, aviation and power infrastructure as well as various interventions designed to address social, economic and security challenges in the country.
Badaru said, “Buhari is honest, transparent and sleeps with Nigerians at heart.
“Nigerians begin to see the effort of Buhari in all sectors and people are now joining the APC in thousands.”
On his part, Mai Mala Buni, governor of Yobe and chairman, APC caretaker extraordinary convention planning committee, congratulated Bent for joining the party.
Buni, represented by former Senate President, Ken Nnamani, said she would be carried along and treated like other members of the party.
