ahead of the Presidential elections.

from Adamawa State is highly favored having allegedly received a tacit

endorsement from former Lagos State Governor, Ahmed Bola Tinubu.

consultations and mobilization of Northern elders to accept his candidacy.

millions, is not leaving any stone unturned in his quest to win the 2015

Presidential elections.

years retiring in 1989 as a Deputy Director. A close aide of the former
