According to her, the women in the state have not forgotten how the PDP plunged the state and country into untold sufferings.
‘We are all living witnesses how bombs explosion occurred in almost a daily basis, how many were killed in the North East.
‘Many Muslims can not observe the Friday prayers because of the fear of Boko Haram. How the North East remained incommunicado to most people living in the North.
‘How most states can not paid salaries. How our treasury was embezzled at the detriment of the ordinary citizens. So no amount of campaign of calumny and blackmail will make us support them. Only women alone would give Buhari and El-Rufai 2 million votes in 2019.
