“As I promised during the take-off that I will take responsibility of the account, we are here today to give you an update on the progress made so far.
“Currently, 82 support groups have been registered under the Buhari Support Organisations, with over 475,796 coordinators and total membership in the region of 8,492,226 across the length and breadth of this country.
