I’ll Advance Nigeria’s Democratic Values – Saraki

Ex-Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki has come out to say that he would use his portfolio of experience to advance the democratic values of the country.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, he would be President for all because he represents a Nigerian identity that is truly diverse, truly inclusive and truly Nigerian, and he’ll also build 500,000 housing units annually if elected President of Nigeria in 2023.

Saraki added that so much time has been wasted talking and engaging in blame games, so Nigerians should expect him to be all about the action.

His words, “I acknowledge the great efforts of all our past leaders over the years. I pay my great respect to them all and I thank them for their service to our nation.”

“However, as long as there is a child in Nigeria that cannot read or write, then the job is not done. And it is for this one child that I want to run for President because I will ensure that the law on compulsory basic education is enforced and the quality of teaching improves in all public schools.”

“As long as there is an old woman in this country who cannot afford her prescription drugs for diabetes or malaria because she has no insurance coverage, the job is not done. And it is for this woman that I want to run for President because I will ensure that people like her are covered; and that we are able to push our compulsory health insurance coverage from the current 7 percent to 50 percent in the first two years.”

“As long as a single village or forest in this country is controlled by terrorists, or bandits or any other criminal groups; as long as any of our citizens lives in fear; as long as our soldiers and other security agents do not get the right training, the right equipment, and the right incentives, the job is not done. And it is for these citizens that I want to be President because I will do everything to protect the lives and properties of every Nigerian and everyone that live within our borders. I will ensure that all our men and women in uniform are well-trained, are well-paid, and well-equipped.”

“As long as crude oil revenue remains the mainstay of our economy, and we remain so vulnerable to the volatility of the international oil market, then the job is not done. And this is why I want to be President because I will raise the revenue from the non-oil sectors to the same level as we currently earn from oil.”

“I will be President for all because I represent a Nigerian identity that is truly diverse, truly inclusive, and truly Nigerian. I will be the bridge between the young and the old. I will be the bridge between the private sector and the public sector. I will be the bridge between Muslims and Christians. I will be the bridge between the North and the South because I am Nigerian for all Nigerians.”

“I will deliver 500, 000 affordable housing units annually. I’ll create a viable platform to protect the African continent. I will be President for all because I represent the Nigerian identity. I will be the bridge between the North and South, Muslims and Christians.”
