President Muhammadu Buhari will attend the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential rallies from Monday, amidst rumours of aloofness from the campaign being spread by opposition Peoples Democratic Party.


He is starting with the mega rally in Adamawa, where the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu and governorship candidate Senator Aishatu Binani are planning to upset PDP and Atiku Abubakar, its presidential candidate.


Atiku hails from the state and he narrowly defeated Buhari in 2019 election.


Buhari is also an in-law to the people of Adamawa, as his wife, Aisha comes from the state.


Buhari had won the state handily in four previous elections in 2003, 2007, 2011 and 2015.


According to a readjusted campaign programme, President Buhari will also show up in Sokoto on Monday 15 January and on Saturday 21 January, in Calabar, Cross River.


He is also expected in Ogun on 25 January, a day after commissioning Dangote Refinery, Lagos Blue Line and other projects in Lagos.


The two other rallies that the President will attend are those planned for Kwara on 28 January and Yobe on 30 January.


Last year, Buhari banned serving officials to stay away from campaigns, as he wanted them to concentrate on their jobs.
