The Presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) on Friday promised to correct the alleged misrule of Nigeria.
He stated that the Peoples Democratic Party had misgoverned the country for about 16 years, adding that the APC was committed to ensuring that it addressed the developmental challenges of the nation.
Speaking in Lokoja, the Kogi State capital on Friday during the APC’s presidential campaign, Buhari promised to put an end to insecurity and frontally fight corruption.
He urged the electorate in the state to vote for APC, saying the party had resolved to govern the nation with a sense of accountability, transparency and probity.
Buhari also promised that if he becomes President, he would resuscitate the Ajaokuta steel manufacturing complex such that it would create massive jobs for the teaming unemployed youths in Nigeria.
He appealed to the electorate that have not collected their Permanent Voters Card to collect them to be able to vote for all the candidates of APC in the forthcoming general elections.
Buhari said, “We don’t have any other country than Nigeria, I assure you that if given the mandate, I will change the country for better. We will ensure that there is maximum security of lives and property.
“APC is the only party that can guarantee the security of the nation effectively. Youth employment, and health would be our priority. We would empower financial institution to be able to give loans to individuals and organisations so as to be able to create employment. We would invest in education and security.
“We will invest vigorously on education, agriculture and we will resuscitate the ailing Ajaokuta steel Company.”
Buhari’s running mate, Prof. Yemi Osibajo, appealed to voters to exercise patience after voting and ensure that their votes are counted before leaving the polling units.
He described Buhari as a man of honour and integrity.
He stated that Buhari had not been found wanting in any public position he occupied before and after his retirement from the Nigerian Army.
APC Chairman, Mr. John Odigie-Oyegun, also called on Nigerians to guard their votes jealously. He stated that Nigeria would be liberated from its numerous problems if Buhari got to power.
The Kogi State APC Chairman, Mr. Haddy Ametuo criticised the Kogi State Government for obtaining bonds without allegedly justifying the loan. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

You don't have capacity to do anything. Tinubu is the one controlling you.
ReplyDeleteThis Buhari if elected will be the worst thing to happen to Nigeria. A man with sense of progress, no contribution to his life and others. A former petroleum Minister, former military Head of State and PTF chairman yet has no endowment in his name, no scholarship, no school built in his name. No community service, No employee except domestic staff. Such a man has no business with being president.
ReplyDeleteYou can't do anything.
ReplyDeleteWatch and see it happen and you would believe that Buhari can do more than you can ever imagine! Real Nigerians would vote Buhari into power come February 14; voting out the big for nothing pdp that has impoverished the country for a wasted 16 years!
ReplyDeleteGMB has proved in various positions he has held that public fund do not belong to him by not stealing it. He understands what integrity and honesty is. Nigerians must vote such person as president if we want to move forward and be like other developed countries. We can not develop by constantly voting corrupt government. The time to start change is now. Do not vote because of little money you are given to vote rather vote to ensure better country for yourself and your children.
