I suppose you didn't post pictures because nobody attended the rally and you are trying to save the face of the president

Can somebody tell me the difference between campaign and Rally?

In Nigerian contest: they are both the same. It's the same thing done on both.

Is it fair for GEJ/TAN to be campaigning while others are asked not to?

What is wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it, what is right is right even if there's no one doing it.
