The Fulani Socio-Cultural group, Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, endorsed Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the 2023 presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Speaking at the endorsement occasion on Friday in Lafia, Alhaji Abdullahi Bello-Boejo, National President of the group said the endorsement followed the track records of Tinubu in the offices he had occupied in the past.
He further explained that the Fulani people were also attracted to support Tinubu because of his choice of Senator Kashim Shettima as his running mate.
He explained that Shettima had developed and constructed schools in Fulani settlements while he served as the governor of Borno.
“So, all Fulani people in Nigeria are for APC and will campaign tirelessly to ensure the victory of their candidates in 2023,” he added.
Responding on behalf of the APC presidential candidate, Shettima lauded the group for its goodwill and support.
Shettima assured that when elected in 2023, they would ensure that the Fulani people were cared for to rear their cattle in modern ways with adequate facilities and ensure that their children were well educated and empowered.
The vice presidential candidate of the APC also promised that their leadership would offer the best development to the country in 2023 and urged the electorate to vote for them.
In his goodwill message, Sen. Abdullahi Adamu, National Chairman of APC expressed gratitude to the Fulani socio-cultural association for the support.
