The people, who are inhabitants of various communities across the rural areas of Kogi state, also commended the governor’s wife for her gesture towards them.
They expressed their surprise over the visit of the first lady to the communities, saying that was the first time the wife of a sitting governor was coming to their communities.
In traditional settlement of Ganaja village, the indigenes pledged their support to the re-election of Buhari as they have benefitted from the social intervention programmes of his administration, especially for the rural dwellers.
