Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), stated on Saturday that if elected President, he will provide a Nigeria free of bandits and affluent.
At the Mobalaji Johnson Arena in Onikan, Lagos, he made the vow to a mob of party youngsters.
“A united Nigeria is our dream,” Mr Tinubu said. “A free Nigeria is our commitment. A violent-free Nigeria, a banditry-free Nigeria. A very successful Nigeria. We promise you, we will hand it over to you. You are our tomorrow.”
He said he was running to represent the youth and argued that only through unity could Nigeria achieve its potentials.
“I want to be President for you,” he said. “Drive me there. Commit yourself. Enough of excuses, enough of bitterness, enough of disunity. All we have to do is to be a United Nigeria of Africa.”
His remark is a sneaky dig at President Muhammadu Buhari, whose administration appears to be swamped by banditry's malicious operations.
For the APC ticket, Tinubu will face Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Transport Minister Rotimi Amechi, Ebonyi Governor Dave Umahi, and Kogi's Yahaya Bello.
