POLITICS: Muhammadu Buhari Promises stable electricity if elected

Buhari stated this on Wednesday,
January 7, during a rally at the
Government Secondary School in
Calabar, Cross River State.
The Presidential candidate of the All
Progressives Congress (APC),
Muhammadu Buhari has said that his
administration would work towards
providing stable electricity in Nigeria if he
is elected into office.
Buhari stated this on Wednesday, January
7, during a rally at the Government
Secondary School in Calabar, Cross River
State.
"Our industries are dying and will
continue to die unless we get the issue of
power supply correct. We will resuscitate
our industries," Buhari said.
"If you go down memory lane, during the
period of regional governments, the
leaders then used to allocate 43 per cent
of the budget on education and that is
why their names will never be forgotten.
We will try to secure our country; we will
ensure industries are resuscitated," he
added.
The former Head of State also spoke on
other priorities of his administration if
elected.
"The situation in Nigeria is of great
concern to us. We are going to attack two
fundamental programmes. These are
security and economy. We are
determined to make sure that the
economy is expanded so that the
tendency to steal is discouraged.
Agriculture will be given priority and this
will give immediate relief to the huge
unemployed Nigerians," he said.
Buhari also urged Nigerians to ensure
that they obtain their Permanent Voter
Cards (PVC) and vote for the APC in the
upcoming elections.
