As part of its strategy to woo delegates, the Bafarawa Support Alliance Group (BSAG) has commenced the feeding of at least 6000 delegates in Port Harcourt, Rivers State for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Convention.
The National Chairman of the Group, Dr. Frank Osagie, said Thursday in a statement that the group would be visiting delegates in their hotels and other locations to deliver food and drinks to them.
According to him, it is the duty of the group to ensure that the welfare of delegates in Port Harcourt for the convention is taken care of and that it has since commenced the delivery of food and drinks to some delegates at some hotels.
While urging delegates that were yet to benefit from this welfare package to contact the group at their secretariat at Living Shepherd Hills Hotel, he also commended the PDP for its recent assurance to party faithful that a mechanism had been put in place to ensure a level playing ground for all the aspirants.
“We are optimistic that the former Sokoto State Governor Attahiru Bafarawa would win the primary election and become the Presidential flag bearer of PDP for the 2019 election,” Osagie said.
He said Bafarawa had earlier visited all the 36 states of the federation and the FCT to consult with the party delegates who assured him of their votes.
He said that Bafarawa’s integrity and clean political record distinguished him from other aspirants and that the former governor left over N12bn in the state’s treasury which his predecessor had used to consolidate on his achievements for eight years.
“Wrestling power from the current APC-led administration would be much easier if Bafarawa flew the party’s flag in 2019,” he said.
