As crucial February polls approach the fight for the
main post is getting stronger. The main opposition party All
Progressives Congress take campaign to the capital of Ghana, Accra.
APC campaign billboards which appeared on the streets, campaign for the party’s presidential candidate General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd).
They are visible in certain main points in Accra. The billboards do not only advise Nigerians to go home and give vote for the opposition party, but also appear to present to the outside world the present situation in Nigeria. Security, corruption, unemployment and a slow rate of development top the list.
The February 14 poll is considered by many as a two-horse race between incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan and the APC’s Buhari, even though there are over 9 other aspirants. It is expected to be the closest since the country returned to democratic rule in 1999.
The campaign team of the APC found a new constituency in Ghana, which houses a big figure of Nigerian nationals. There were previous reports of a large number of Nigerians moving to Ghana to stay till the elections are over.
The APC uses some modern means of campaigning. Its vice-presidential
candidate Yemi Osinbajo recently took campaign to the BRT bus, busy
market in Lagos, speaking with locals and personally distributing
flyers.
