The wife of the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress [APC] Aishatu Buhari, has urged women in the country to work towards achieving peaceful general election in February.
Buhari, who was represented by Zainab Nyako, made the call on Friday in Yola, the Adamawa State capital, while addressing an APC Women Presidential Campaign Initiative town hall meeting.
She said that women have a critical role to play towards a peaceful election and victory of APC at all levels.
“It is also imperative, for us to educate our party members on peaceful conduct before, during and after elections,” Mrs. Nyako said.
“We should avoid violence in all its ramifications because this is one area that the ruling party is looking up to discredit the efforts and successes of our party”, Nyako said.
She also stressed the need for voter education and urged women coordinators of Buhari campaign organization in the state and local government levels to canvass for votes – door to door and person to person.
Speaking at the occasion, the Adamawa Coordinator of the Women Presidential Campaign Initiative, Faith Pukuma, and Adamawa APC Women Leader, Hauwa Koma, declared the commitment of the party’s women to mobilized voters for APC.
They promised to handle the campaign in Adamawa State with vigour since it is the home state of Aishatu Buhari.
