"That claim is simply laughable because the area has witnessed lots of infrastructural growth as well as the appointment and election of its people into key positions.

Buhari had at meeting of the unregistered Action People's Congress (APC) in Kagoro, near Kafanchan, dismissed the PDP as "a colony of deceivers'', and advised the people to join the APC.
