The All Progressives Congress (APC) support groups on Wednesday staged a rally in support of President Muhammadu Buhari, urging him to ignore those they termed as ‘blackmailers’ bent on distracting him from delivering good governance to Nigerians.
The convener of the rally, Dr. Paul Dowells, alleged that the sabotage within the corridors of power was becoming more alarming with the recent sponsored campaign against the president.
He called on the president to ignore those who earlier protested against some of his personal staff, adding that the protest held recently by a group was done under the guise of blackmailing Mamman Daura, Ismaila Funtua and Abba Kyari.
According to him, “If Buhari is not on the driver's seat, we will not have enjoyed the N-Power, the Conditional Cash Transfer, the Market money and many more."
He said: “We are members of the governing APC. We are pro-democracy, we are Pro-Buhari, we believe in your leadership qualities and strength of governance as you continue to sail the affairs of this entity called Nigeria.
“As a people, we agreed to stand and defend democracy, which we did for 16 years before clinching power. The sacrifice of every individual is commendable, before, during and after the elections.
“Sir, we observed that, the two persons mentioned in a protest against you, Mamman Daura and Ismaila Funtua are not government appointees.
“They are patriotic Nigerians and must not be related with the governance of the country as Mr President is fully in charge of the government.
“Sir, your Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari is doing well. He is discharging his duty diligently, of course, those who want his office are not ghosts, they are neither PDP members, they are of the APC,” he noted.
