“To birth a new order, however, the people and political class must embrace progressive democratic culture where money politics, vote buying and other indecorous actions bedevilling our democratic project will be relegated.”
The Unity Forum consensus candidate in the July APC primaries also lamented that the country is yet to deliver on the hope of Nigerians. He however encouraged citizens to keep hope alive.
In his words, “Today, we are yet to deliver on our collective hope. As it was in the past, so it is in our today’s political landscape. But we despair not. I congratulate Nigerians on yet another great moment in our collective history. We shall together birth a new order in our state, where the people will own their government again.”
