Some Peace Corps officials on
Monday took their campaign to Benue State, where they appealed to President
Muhammadu Buhari to reconsider his decision and assent to the bill establishing
the institution.
The Corps official made the
demand during a protest along the streets of Makurdi, Benue State during
Buhari’s visit.
They wielded placards with the
message, “Fulfill your campaign promise of job creation,” “PMB please give us
Peace Corps.”
Recall that Buhari had in
February cited security concerns as reasons for withholding assent to the bill
seeking to establish Peace Corps.
