Addressing the large crowd at the Lafia square, the former information minister said he was overwhelmed with the turnout of people as compared to the numbers of people who graced Atiku rally in Nasarawa state. Maku who was visibly happy with the crowd, said “the rumour making the round that Maku has no supporters, has proven to the world today that God is above us and electorates are below. “APGA has the majority supporters in the state and will win all the 13 local government areas of the state”. He also informed that if elected into office, will unite the diverse ethnic nationalities, justice for all irrespective of their religious or ethnicity. Giving explanation to his campaign slogan, “enough is enough “, Maku said the slogan is an indication to end killings, poverty, corruption and percentage end in the state. Also speaking, the presidential Candidate of the party, RTD. Gen.
