President Muhammadu Buhari on Saturday in Daura, his hometown, revalidated his APC membership status.

Naija News reports the President did the re-validation exercise at his Sarkin Yara polling unit in Daura, Katsina State, and was accompanied by some APC governors and the party national leaders.

The President’s registration exercise in Daura was attended by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, former Senate President, Ken Nnamani, ten governors, including the Governor of Yobe State, Mai Mala Buni, who is the Chairman of the APC Caretaker Committee, and other party stalwarts.

See some photos.

It will be recalled as earlier reported by Naija News that President Buhari arrived Daura, his hometown on Friday, 29th January for a four-day official visit.

Meanwhile, former Aviation Minister in Nigeria, Femi Fani-Kayode on Saturday said he was the first to speak out against a Muslim-Muslim ticket between President Muhammadu Buhari and Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in 2015.

He said the Muslim-Muslim ticket would have been a deep insult to Nigerians and that was why he spoke out against it.

Fani-Kayode spoke out in reaction to the submission by a former military administrator of Lagos State, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, who said former President Olusegun Obasanjo stopped the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, from becoming the running mate to President Muhammadu Buhari in 2015.

Fani-Kayode however in reaction to the news, said he blew the whistle before Obasanjo or any other person spoke against the move.

He insisted that he is proud of what he did and wouldn’t want history to be distorted.
