Buhari Campaign Organisation to embark on ward-to-ward mobilisation in Bayelsa

The Buhari Campaign Organisation and Empowerment (BCO) in Bayelsa State says plan is underway to embark on ward-to-ward mobilisation for the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari, ahead of the 2019 general elections.

Mr Ezekiel Ogbianko, Bayelsa Liaison Officer of BCO, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), on Tuesday, in Yenagoa, the state capital, that over 20,000 persons had so far been registered as members.

On the inauguration of the Rivers-Bayelsa Liaison Office of BCO on November 14, in Port Harcourt, Ogbianko said the event was a welcome development and called for more support for President Buhari.

Ogbianko, who is also the Chairman, Rice Farmers Association of Nigeria (RIFAN) in Bayelsa State, said the support for Buhari was necessary due to his numerous achievements not only in the area of agriculture, but also in all sectors.

“The Anchor Borrower Programme is one of them and every farmer across the country has benefitted from it; we must support President Buhari to finish his good work.

“The BCO in Bayelsa State is committed and we are going to embark on ward-to-ward mobilisation to preach the gospel of Buhari, the APC presidential candidate for 2019 elections.

“We have found it necessary that it is good to allow the present government to complete what they have started.

“What we want in this county is only good governance and not looters; we need sustainable development in all sectors for the good of the nation. It is high time we stopped the primitive methods of election of violence and killings,” he said.
