The presidential candidate of the Alliance for Democracy, Rafiu Salau, has stated that he is the best candidate among other individuals seeking to occupy the Office of the President of Nigeria in 2015.
Comparing himself to the All Progressives Congress’ presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), the AD candidate said he was a better option.
“I’m the best candidate because I know the feelings of the people better than any presidential candidate. I am also better than President Goodluck Jonathan.
“I know the solutions to the nation’s problems. I know the type of economy Nigeria needs to survive and succeed. I know how to make our nation be the first in Africa,” Salau told newsmen.
According to him, the nation will change under his leadership.
He said, “Good governance is the objective. The economy will have room for all Nigerians. Every Nigerian will have the required skills and knowledge to participate in economic activities. To expand the economy, 30 per cent of the oil revenue shall be used for capital goods for development of businesses that will ensure economic growth.
“The population of unemployed Nigerians is more than many developed countries. To solve the problem of unemployment in Nigeria, every state shall have industrial city. And a state shall be created for the unemployed Nigerians. Developing the economy of the state will create jobs for them.”
Salau added that in his drive to develop the economy to a world class standard, 50 per cent of the nation’s revenue would be generated from personal income tax.
He, however, expressed his willingness to work with Buhari and Jonathan, if any of them was elected as president in the February 14 presidential election. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
