President Muhammadu BuhariThe presidency has appealed to millions supporters of President Muhammadu Buhari to halt political campaigns for the President in order not to run foul of the electoral laws of the country.
In a statement by the special adviser to the President on Media and publicity Femi Adesina, the presidency said it observed that some fervent supporters of President Buhari have begun what may be interpreted as political campaigns in their advocacies and advertisements in the mass media.
“We appreciate their enthusiasm, borne out of desire to garner support for an administration that is actuated by nothing else, other than service for motherland, but we hereby appeal for patience, so that the game can be played according to the rules. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has a timetable for political campaigns, and we urge committed supporters round the country (and beyond) to be mindful of such. There will be ample time ahead to trumpet the good works of the Buhari administration, and solicit re-election, all for the good of our country and her people.
