the conclusion of the 2015 general elections increased
as one Haruna Salisu claimed to have spent about two
weeks trekking from Kano State to Abuja.
First it was one Mister Suleiman Hashimu who claimed
to have trekked from Lagos to Abuja to congratulate
the President-elect, General Muhamadu Buhari.
Mr Salisu said his mission is to register his protest
against alleged electoral fraud in the just concluded
governorship election in Taraba State.
This did not only attract several questions and
comments from the general public as to the
authenticity of Mr Hashimu's claims, but it has also
attracted more trekkers into the scene.
His host, members of the All Progressive Congress's
Young Women Forum, also believed that their
candidate was rigged out of the Taraba governorship
elections.
Whether these claims of long distance solidarity treks
to Abuja are true or not, it is difficult to verify for now.
one thing that is sure however is the fact that this
development is new in the history of politics in Nigeria.
