The Bauchi State Food Vendors Multi-Purpose Cooperative Union has called on President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Mohammed Abdullahi Abubakar of Bauchi State to contest for second term in 2019.

The Chairperson of the union, Hajiya Kaltume Katagum, disclosed over the weekend during a courtesy visit to the Special Assistant to Governor Abubakar on Non-Governmental Organisations and Social Investment Programmes, Mansur Manu Soro.
Katagum said: “We want the President to continue the good work he started of the fight against insecurity, improving the economy as well as Social Investment Programmes.
“The Home-Grown Schools Feeding Programme has improved our general standard of living so much that our members who never touched N5,000 in their lives today receive N100,000 directly into their bank accounts.
“Majority of us were not privileged to even visit banks until President Buhari came to power.”
Katagum said to show their appreciation to Buhari, the members of the union have promised to contribute to his campaign in 2019.
“We sincerely thank the President, Vice President, Bauchi Governor and National SIPs office for making our dreams a reality,” she added.
