The former minister of information, Labaran
Maku, while going on his campaigns, is usually
accompanied with a live chicken.
Maku is contesting for the governorship of
Nasarawa state, under the platform of the All
Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), which has a
fowl as its logo.
The erstwhile student union leader, was until of
recent, under the umbrella of the ruling party,
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), but lost the
primary to Yusuf Agabi, who scored 214 votes to
emerge the winner of the PDP gubernatorial
primary in the State.
He also tried to attempted to secure the
gubernatorial ticket of the Labour Party (LP), but
was unsuccessful, before he finally decided to
pitch his tent with the party with the ‘chicken’ as
its logo.
When next you see the man wielding a live
chicken, don’t be alarmed… he’s just
campaigning.
