Thousands of people, including women and youths, on Wednesday in Kano held a rally, organized by group, ‘’I STAND WITH BUHARI’’, in support of President Muhammadu Buhari.
The supporters, who converged on the Shoprite at Zoo Road in Kano metropolis, trekked to the Government House through Maiduguri Road and Emir’s Palace through the State Road.
They also carried placards with various inscriptions some of which read: ”100 per cent support to EFCC, ‘’We support Buhari’’, ‘’One Nigeria, and We stand with Buhari’’ among others.
He said that the group was particularly appreciative of the Buhari-led administration’s fight against corruption and insecurity in the country.
“The decision by our group, I STAND WITH BUHARI, to organize the mega rally is to express our support for what Buhari is doing for the country.
“We are not going back until good governance prevails in the country. We will also support Buhari come 2019.”
Garba-iceman said the group would hold similar rally in Kaduna, Port Harcourt, Abuja and Lagos.
He also said that the group held a special prayer for speedy recovery of Buhari and his return to the country.
Men of the Nigerian Police were on ground providing security to the group in all the places they went until they dispersed
Anti-government’s protests were held in Abuja and Lagos on February 6 by some group of people #IStandWithNigeria” demanding good governance
The protest was initially initiated by hip hop artiste Tubaba, who later called it off in order not avoid the protest from being hijacked.
In spite of his move to stop the protest some people went ahead to march in Lagos and Abuja.
The Nigeria Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress also protested, but in support of the anti-corruption agenda and called for a stiffer campaign against corruption.
