The mammoth crowd that welcomed Gen. Buhari and his team to Maiduguri today were unprecedented in the history of such gathering in the state.

Sources close to Ali Modu Sheriff camp told our correspondent that the Ex-Governor who recently boasted that he will deliver Borno to the PDP following a dismal parade of few hired crowd in the PDP presidential rally in Maiduguri was shock to learn that such crowd had turn out to receive the APC Presidential candidate in Borno state; a disbelieving shock that saw him visiting the toilet three times as he sat watching the programme.
