The nationwide campaign tour of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari, has berthed in the commercial city of Aba in Abia state.

He paid a courtesy visit to the palace of the Enyi of Aba, where he was conferred with the traditional title of Ogbuagu 1 of Aba (The lion killer) by the monarch, who adorned him with coral beads, a traditional attire and a red cap.

Subsequently, Buhari and his entourage walked through some streets in Aba, and visited the popular Ariaria market, where he visited a groundnut seller’s stall to patronize her.

The entourage of the erstwhile head of state was made up of the director-general of his campaign organisation, Gov. Rotimi Amaechi and the national chairman of the APC, John Odigie-Oyegun.

Others were APC national leader, Ogbonnaya Onu, zonal coordinator of the Buhari campaign for the South East, Chris Ngige, and Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha.
