The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has promised to revive the manufacturing sector and diversify the economy for the benefit of everyone if elected President come 2023.
Tinubu stated this on Sunday during a town hall meeting with Muslim leaders from South West in Ibadan, Oyo State.
Media aide to the former Lagos State governor, Tunde Rahman, disclosed this in a statement.
Tinubu said, “Regarding the economy, we seek to repair the very structure of the economy. We can no longer flourish as an economy based on natural resource extraction.
“We must become a dynamic, diversified economy where those who want to work can find a good job. But let us also be a society sufficiently compassionate to help those who cannot help themselves.
“We must revive manufacturing and industrial growth to create jobs as well as produce the goods and services that improve the daily lives of the average person.
“We seek a minimum of six per cent growth annually through reform of our industrial policy, infrastructural enhancement, power sector innovation, and significant budgetary reform.”
The APC candidate also urged religious leaders to encourage their followers to come out to vote in the forthcoming elections.
“I ask you to urge your followers to come out and vote and to do so wisely. Vote for a candidate that has a vision for a peaceful, prosperous Nigeria where tolerance and compassion undergird our constitutional and legal rights. My pledge to fairness and justice is consistent with the tenets of the Islamic faith.
“A leader in a plural society like ours is enjoined to be a leader of all. If elected, I shall govern honestly and democratically in harmony with our nation’s constitution,” he added.
Also speaking at the event, the President of Muslim Ummah of South West Nigeria, Alhaji Rasaki Oladejo, noted that the event provided an opportunity for the APC candidate to interface with Muslim leaders in the South-West on his plans for the nation if elected, “particularly on how he could make the country a land of great opportunities where no man will be oppressed.”
The National Chief Missioner of Anwar-ur- Deen Movement, Sheikh Ahmad Abdulrahman, said, “The gathering was not to campaign or endorse Asiwaju or any candidate but to seek and to know and to see whether Asiwaju Tinubu can still deliver for the country as he did as governor of Lagos State.” CONTINUE READING……………………….
