President Muhammadu Buhari will on Tuesday attend the grand finale of the All Progressives Congress gubernatorial campaign rally in Benin.
Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo and governors elected on the platform of the APC are also expected to grace the rally ahead of the election scheduled for Saturday.
The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Edo State, Anselm Ojezua, made this announcement to journalists on Monday.
Ojezua said the National Campaign Council for the election headed by Governor Akinwumi Ambode of Lagos state was already in Benin to prepare grounds for the rally, scheduled to take place at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin.
“All logistics to ensure free movement of the visitors and party supporters across the state have also been perfected.
“Anytime APC is holding rally, there is always mass mobilisation. “Once the people know that the president is coming this time around, our people will be so excited to receive him,” he said.
He called on the people, in respective of party affiliation, to come out enmasse to welcome the President to the state.
The President is expected to raise the hands of Godwin Obaseki who is flying the party’s flag against Osagie Ize-Iyamu who is contesting on the platform of the People’s Democratic Party.
Incumbent governor, Adams Oshiomole’s second term ends later this year.
