State residents marched to Minnesota’s polo stadium today to greet the former Anambra governor, his running mates, and other party leaders.
State residents repeated the event in Kaduna state on Wednesday, with a large vote for the Labor Party. This development contradicted his Rufai Governor, Malam Nasir El, who boasted during the campaign that he would not give up 200 people in a state.
