President Muhammadu Buhari has arrived Katina to start of a four-day official visit at his home town Daura.
President Buhari was welcomed by the Governor of Katsina State, Governor Aminu Bello Masari on arrival at the Umaru Musa Yar’Adua International Airport, the Deputy Governor, the Speaker of the State House of Assembly and the Chief Judge were also at the airport to welcome him.
The Emir of Daura, Alhaji Faruk Umar Faruk, led District Heads and traditional title holders to receive the President at the Helipad.
President Buhari is expected to, among other engagements, participate in the All Progressives Party (APC) membership registration and revalidation exercise during his stay.
President Buhari considers this exercise as a very important one for the nation’s democracy and its yearning for good leadership as a requirement of the process of nation building.
In a broadcast last week, President Buhari urged “all good people,” not only to speak but to rise up and “get involved in the task of improving their society,” adding that “for most citizens, their greatest weapon is their vote. Register now for your Party and register when the time comes for elections.”
The president is expected to return to Abuja on Tuesday.
