He expressed confidence in the ability of the Senate President to govern Nigeria well and deliver the dividends of democracy to the people.

Dr Aminat Ahmed, the state Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, who also took part in the rally, explained that it was organised to correct the misconception going round that the people of Kaiama had rejected the leadership of Saraki.

She assured PDP of victory in Kaiama in the forthcoming 2019 general elections.

Mallam Ahmed Ibn Mohammed, who is representing Kaiama/Kenmaji/Wajibe constituency, noted that Saraki's belief in the youth was what endeared him into the minds of the people of the area.

"For giving a youth like me an opportunity to represent my people at the state Assembly is a manifestation of his visionary leadership and belief in the youth", he said. (NAN)
