The Wife of the President, Mrs Aisha Buhari, on Tuesday donated food items to the national secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abuja, for the Ramadan. Buhari, who was represented by an APC Board of Trustees member, Alhaji Nasir Dano, said that she had extended the gesture to some states, including Kano, Rivers and Borno.
Receiving the items, which included bags of rice, sugar, beverages and cartons of spaghetti, National Chairman of APC, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, thanked the president’s wife for the gesture. ”I have been involved in some of the donations her Excellency has been doing by going out of her way to solicit support from well-meaning Nigerians to affect lives positively,’’ he said.
The chairman assured her that APC would not disappoint Nigerians in spite of the downturn in the economy. “We will strive to deliver on our promises to the people and ensure that Nigerians get the `change’ they deserve,’’ he added. The items are expected to be shared among party members in the six area councils in the Federal Capital Territory. (NAN)
