A group of five married men have vowed
to trek from Nigeria to Saudi Arabia to
celebrate the victory of the president-elect,
General Muhammadu in the March 28
presidential poll.
Speaking with newsmen in Bauchi on
Sunday, the men; viz. Mohammed Inuwa,
45, Dahiru Aminu, 33, Abdullahi Usseini,
45, Abubakar Danjuma, 45, and Kabiru
Saleh , 35, explained that their decision to
embark on the foot journey was fueled by
the undying love they have for the
incoming leader.
Speaking on their behalf, Mohammed
Inuwa said, “He has tried to be president
for 12 years but Allah did not make it to be
possible.
We believe he always won because he had
the support of the majority.
This time around Allah has given him the
power and so we decided to trek to Mecca
by road to register our unflinching support
to General Buhari”
They said they were ready to give their
lives for the mission but, “we pray Allah
will protect and guide us because we are
committed to show our appreciation to
General Buhari.”
They disclosed that they have consulted
widely with families and friends and have
made adequate preparations for the
journey which they estimated will take
them at least, three months and will see
them transverse countries of Chad, Sudan
before reaching their destination in Mecca.
The men said that they hope to begin their
trek on May 30, a day after the swearing-in
of the incoming administration and asked
Nigerians to pray for them to succeed in
their mission.
