In recent times, Nigerians have been trekking for political leaders they admire. A 50-year-old man, Dahiru Buba, who trekked from Gombe to Abuja to celebrate President Muhammadu Buhari’s victory in the 2015 general elections, received N2 million and a car gift from Gombe state governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya.

Buba who is a staunch supporter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) had developed limb complications from the trek.

The governor in a statement issued by his media aide, Ismaila Uba Misilli, said the aid was to provide a new lease of life to the diehard supporter.

In his words:

“For taking the pains and risks to show solidarity with Mr. President and our great party, people like Buba should not be neglected. By embarking on that solidarity trek, Dahiru Buba had shown patriotism and support, he should therefore be appreciated and encouraged.”
