THE All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, on Monday promised to liberate captured towns in the North-East from the hold of Boko Haram insurgents.

Security operatives had hectic time controlling the unprecedented crowd that turned out to welcome Buhari to the state, which serves as the base of Boko Haram.

The state governor, Kashim Shettima, had on Sunday declared Monday a work-free day in the state and asked residents to troop out to show their love for Buhari.

Movements were paralysed, especially around the Ramat Square venue of the APC presidential rally.

At the Shehu of Bornos palace, Buhari said, I was here in 1975 as governor of the defunct North-East states, Im happy that I received a befitting welcome; if elected, I will focus on tackling the persistent insecurity affecting the North-East, it is not easy as the damage has been done.

Your Royal Highness, God willing if APC government is elected, all towns under Boko Haram control will be liberated and rebuilt. It was unfortunate that commercial activities were paralysed following the insecurity. In the past, hundreds of trailers loaded with goods took off from Maiduguri to various neighbouring countries, but presently the reverse is the situation.

Boko Haram ideology contradicts Islamic principles, because Islam does not allow senseless killings of innocent souls. It is unfortunate that innocent persons were being killed in mosques, churches and their houses. God willing, if APC government is elected we will restore the confidence in governance.

The Borno monarch, Alhaji Abubakar El-Kanemi, told the APC presidential candidate that, if elected, he should focus on restoration of peace, massive investment, re-construction of federal roads and ensure the success of oil exploration in the Lake Chad region.

The speeches at the rally were continually punctuated by the shouts of Sai Buhari.

Obasanjos exit from PDP, plus for APC El-Rufais campaigners

All Progressives Congress Campaign Council in Kaduna State on Monday said the exit of former President Olusegun Obasanjo from the Peoples Democratic Party would boost the fortunes of the opposition party in the rescheduled March 28 and April 11 elections in the country.

The APC Campaign Council in the state is the campaign outfit for the former Federal Capital Territory and the state governorship candidate, Malam Nasir el-Rufai, and the partys presidential candidate, Maj-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(retd.), for the 2015 general elections.

The Chairman of the council, Alhaji Suleiman Hunkuyi, who addressed newsmen at the El-Rufai Campaign Office in the state capital, noted that for the ex-president to dump the party he rode on to power for eight years, should be a source of concern to Nigerians.

He noted that if Obasanjo, a highly respected figure not only in Nigeria but the world over, should dump his party,it is a plus for the APC.

Hunkuyi added, Obasanjo is a highly respected figure in the country and if somebody of his calibre should get of the party that on which he rode on to power for eight years, then, it should be a source of concern to all Nigerians.

He will be highly welcomed to the party. If the party can receive him, its a plus for the APC, he said.

Meanwhile, the APC council said it would soon embark on a special campaign for the collection of the Permanent Voter Card in the state ahead of the rescheduled elections.

Though, the state is among the states to have collected the highest number of PVC so far, Hunkuyi noted that the council would not rest until those that were yet to pick up the PVCs do so.

According to the campaign chairman, until every eligible voter in the state reaches 100 per cent collection rate of the cards.

Kaduna state stands high in terms of the collection of the PVC in the country but we are not resting on our oars. We will embark on special campaign for those who are yet to collect their PVC to do so until we reach 100 per cent collection rate, he said.

Liberals' byelection scandal expected to dominate as Ontario legislature resumes

The Canadian Press Published Tuesday, February 17, 2015 7:03AM EST Last Updated Tuesday, February 17, 2015 10:18AM EST

TORONTO -- Premier Kathleen Wynne says she won't ask her deputy chief of staff to step aside while the Ontario Provincial Police investigate Pat Sorbara's role in a Sudbury byelection.

Wynne says Sorbara's role as the Liberal campaign director is separate from her duties in the premier's office, so there's no need for her to resign during the police investigation.

It's the first time Wynne has commented since police filed a court document in which they say there are grounds to believe an offence was committed.

Andrew Olivier alleges the Liberals offered him a job or appointment to step aside as their candidate to make way for former New Democrat MP Glenn Thibeault -- who won the Feb. 5 byelection.

Wynne maintains no specific offer was made to Olivier, and insists all the Liberals were trying to do was keep a "failed candidate" active in the party.

She also says the people of Sudbury had all the facts about the OPP investigation when they went to the polls, and still elected a Liberal.

The opposition parties are waiting to pounce on the OPP investigation into the Liberal's behaviour in the byelection as the legislature resumes today for the first time since its Christmas break.
