All Progressives Congress, APC, South South Zone, has announced a National Unity and Solidarity Rally for President Mohammadu Buhari

The proposed rally is to draw more grassroots support for the president who returns to the country Saturday after more than 100 days of medical vacation in London.

The president’s long absence has generated a lot of concerns among Nigerians leading to mass protest in Abuja, calling on him to return or resign from office.

Zonal Organizing Secretary of the party, Mr. Paul Obi, said in a statement made available to  Next Edition in Uyo on Saturday that the proposed rally would mobilize more grassroots support from all the states of the south south zone as well as from other critical stakeholders across the country.

Mr. Obi who is also chairman of the event planning committee said stakeholders would demonstrate their solidarity for Mr. President.

He said they would also express their support for his administration’s economic recovery, anti-corruption and national unity pursuit among other developmental policies of the APC-led administration.
