Fayose @GovAyoFayose gleefully tweeted the pictures and wrote: “With other party leaders @the PDP rally held yesterday in Katsina, the home state of President Buhari. We must Change this failed Change”.

Meanwhile, the PDP has mocked the ruling All Progress Congress (APC) for ‘procuring endorsement from a fictitious religious group’ called Arewa pastors.

In a series of tweets on Sunday, the PDP said there was no amount of procured endorsements that can change the mind of the people.

“Arewa Pastors: The recent stage-managed political endorsement by the All Progressives Congress (APC) @APCNigeria and the @MBuhari Presidency, by procuring individuals who masqueraded as religious leaders, is hypocritical and signs of desperation.

“The @MBuhari Presidency’s hiring of supposed Arewa Pastors was a second attempt to orchestrate fake endorsements ahead of the 2019 election, recalling the recent Martin Luther King Jr. saga @TheKingCenter

Both procured endorsements, @APCNigeria which had turned out to be fake, are, to say the least, despicable and betray the nervousness of a sinking leadership, @MBuhari desperately trying to save its face, having been rejected by the people.

It is heartrending that because of the desperation of one man @MBuhari, the integrity of Nigeria’s seat of power has again been ridiculed as the world watched religious bodies and groups in the country disowning the procured band.

The fact that this disgraceful drama came barely a week after our nation suffered an international show of shame over @MBuhar’s presentation with a procured award fraudulently linked to Luther King Jr speaks volumes of this administration’s proclivity for falsehood and deception.

These disgraceful endorsements are being coordinated by three presidential aides, a cabinet minister from the southsouth and certain officials of the @APCNigeria, a project for which billions of naira have been earmarked.

We therefore charge all credible groups in the country to be at alert and resist any attempt by the @NGRPresident and the failed @APCNigeria to induce them to compromise their integrity, as well as guide against plots to use money to infiltrate and divide their ranks”, the party said.
