President Muhammadu Buhari has told the people of Borno State to vote Governor Babagana Zulum for a second term in office during the March 11 2023 elections.
The President pointed out that Zulum has done so much to improve the livelihood of the people and surely deserves another term in office.
Naija News reports Buhari made the submission on Thursday during his one-day visit to Borno State to commission some projects and sympathize with the people over the recent fire at the Maiduguri Monday Market.
According to him, Governor Zulum has executed an uncountable number of developmental projects during his first term in office. 
Some of the projects commissioned by Buhari on Thursday include the multi-billion naira Maiduguri, Emergency Power Project, MEPP along Baga road, dualization of Ahmadu Bello Way, Shehu Sanda Kyari, Lafiya and Mogoram roads, New Tashan Bama Motor Park/Market and Doctors’ Quarters at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital.
Buhari while unveiling the Maiduguri Emergency Power Project, MEPP, said of Governor Zulum: “I cannot count the number of people oriented projects executed by Borno State Government which I personally commissioned in the last three and half years.
“As you were all aware, the insurgents have been attacking the Damaturu- Maiduguri and Maiduguri -Damboa- Biu Transmission lines which had caused serious economic hardship to the people of Maiduguri and its environs for over a year ago, as economic activities have been crippled.
“This unwholesome development necessitated government to provide an alternative source of power to the people in this part of the country. Therefore I directed the Group Managing Director, GMD of the NNPC ltd, Mele Kyari to immediately embark on this project we are commissioning today.
” I want to commend NNPC ltd for following my directives in restoring power supply to Maiduguri and its environs.
“Let me use this opportunity to commend His Excellency, Governor Babagana Zulum for keeping to his campaign promises. Today it is my pleasure to commission some projects including the dualized Ahmadu Bello Way, Shehu Sanda Kyari, Lafiya and Mogoram roads, New Tashan Bama Motor Park/Market, Doctors’ Quarters and Cancer Centre at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital.
”In fact, I cannot remember or count the number of projects I commissioned during your first tenure as Governor. I also acknowledged your contributions and that of stakeholders working closely with the Federal Government by bringing back our refugees from Cameroun and other neighbouring countries following the relative peace currently witnessed in this part of the country.
” To this end, Governor Zulum deserves a second term.”
Earlier in his keynote address at the site of the MEPP, Governor Zulum had commended the federal government for providing an alternative source of power supply through the completed 50MWs Power Plant.
He also thanked President Buhari for his support for the entire people of the North East.
