Mrs Buhari Urges Proper Voter Education

Date: 2015-03-18

Wife of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Mrs. Aisha Buhari, yesterday called for proper education of the party's supporters on its symbol and logo, saying the APC's support base is the masses.

Mrs. Buhari who paid a courtesy visit to Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed of Kwara State as part of her two-day Citizens Outreach and Town Hall meetings in Kwara State noted that the masses who make up the party's backbone include illiterate and rural people who have no access to television or the social media.

She recalled that many people who joined the APC were from different political parties where they used different slogans. She said, "The illiterate can hardly identify where they are now. So it is so important for us to educate the electorate about the broom (the APC logo). Our major supporters are the masses, masses, masses and masses, especially knowing the presidential candidate of the mega party. He was in ANPP, then CPC and now APC which is not easy for people that are not literate to identify easily".

Mrs. Buhari who noted that the forthcoming election revolves around women who according to her constitute 55 per cent of the registered voters, said they must be educated on how to vote.

Governor Ahmed said the PDP had moved away from the people, adding, "Today, Nigeria has one of the highest rates of out-of-school children. Today, very few Nigerians can feed with more than one dollar a day. We can't continue like this. We must see a process that ushered in change".
