Sokoto youths sweep Jonathan, PDPleaders out-of-state

Hundred of youths took to the street near the palace of the
Sultan of the northern Nigerian city of Sokoto, to carry out
a symbolic sweeping of the floor. It was shortly after
President Goodluck Jonathan and his entourage left the
Sultan’s palace to Shehu Kangiwa Square today to hold a
rally.
Malam Ibrahim Musa, one of the sweepers said the exercise
was to demonstrate to the PDP leaders that the people of
the state are bent on ensuring total victory for the APC
Presidential Candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari.
” You can see things for your self. Mr President just passed
and we youths mobilize ourselves to clear our area for
peace,progress and political growth of our country,” he said
Another sweeper, Alhaji Abdullahi Isa described the
symbolic sweeping of the roads as a clear indication that
Nigerians need a change of leadership direction.
“Nothing seem to be moving hence the need for well
meaning Nigerians to support the cause of political change
being championed by the progressives,” he said.
He said that no one asked the youths to sweep the road,
adding that they came out to demonstrate that they were
tired of the maladministration of the PDP led government.
” I have three graduates in my house. No work for them. He
said.
He said that PDP should forget Sokoto and indeed the
northwest because the people have spoken their minds.
” Mr President, don’t listen to failed politicians who have
nothing to offer ” he said.
The President had earlier paid a courtesy visit on Sultan
Saad Abubakar at his palace where he promised to accord
priority to the provision of modern farming inputs and
education in the state.
He said that the PDP led administration will continue to
accord great respect to Sultanate council as well as
traditional rulers for the useful contribution towards
promoting peaceful coexistence.
Jonathan also informed Sultan Abubakar that he was in
Sokoto to formally present the party candidates before their
teeming supporters.
He said that the candidates if elected will meet the
expectation of electorates in ensuring good democratic
governance.
Sultan Abubkar told President Jonathan that the federal
government should do more in confronting the present
security challenges facing the country.
He said that muslims must be seen practicing their religion
in a peaceful atmosphere and this would only by possible if
the federal government introduce stringent security
measures that would gurantee the safety of all and sundry
at home, the places of worship and public places. CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
