Less than two weeks,when Nigerians will be going to the polls to decide the future of their country. We’d like you to give a glance on #throwback pictures of one of the candidates General Muhammadu Buhari from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
General who took power from the democratically elected administration of President Shehu Shagari in a military coup d’état, was Head of State from 31 December 1983 to 27 August 1985.
One of those present with Buhari in the Ilaro pictures, General Ibrahim Babangida, led the August 1985 coup that throw out him.
The Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro was established in July 1979 and began receiving students in November, same year, from a temporary site at Ilaro, Ogun State.
In 1983, same year Buhari assumed power, the polytechnic moved to its permanent site, a massive 898.116 hectares land area, along Ilaro/Oja-Odan Road, about three kilometres from Ilaro township.
It should be noted that Gombe State received yesterday General Buhari, two days after the bomb blast hit the city after the rally of incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan.
