President Muhammadu Buhari has promised to reward hard work and loyalty among those who work for his re-election in 2019.
The president spoke on Wednesday at the launch of another support group for his re-election bid, “Together Nigeria,” at the State House Conference Hall, Abuja.
He thanked the Together Nigeria Group for educating the world about his government’s “good work and achievements,” as well as other organizations and individuals for their “overwhelming support.”
Buhari said: “Tonight’s event once again reminds me of our political struggles over the years and the support I enjoyed from many support structures such as The Buhari Organization (TBO) and Buhari Support Organization (BSO). I am happy that today we are not only celebrating our election victory but our numerous land mark achievements.
“I have listened and I acknowledge with delight the story of Buhari Support Organization (BSO) past, present and future from previous speakers. In particular, I commend the plan to reorganize and reposition the organization towards the forth coming election and beyond. This has once again given me further encouragement, hope and optimism in our political journey.
“At this point, I would like to acknowledge the over whelming support I enjoyed from individuals and organizations across the country over the years. I say thank you to all those who contributed to our successes in one way or the other.
“Some of you, individuals and organizations, may be feeling disappointed because we have not been able to please everyone. I would like to assure you that this time hard work and loyalty will be rewarded adequately.
“Finally, I wish to thank the TOGETHER NIGERIA Group for educating the world about our good work and achievements. I will like to also thank our celebrities for projecting the image of Nigeria globally and for your contributions to the development of our entertainment industries.”
Also speaking at the event, House of Representatives member, Mohammed Kazaure, said that he has not seen anyone among the presidential candidates who would defeat Buhari.
