make Nigeria a better place and a global economic power,” she said.

transparency and accountability.

health, building a strong economy as well as focus on communication,
transport, electric power provision, security and potable water supply
to the highest level.
He will create jobs and ensure that
resources are equitably distributed and an enabling and conducive
business environment provided.

economic growth and development. He will continue to champion economic
diplomacy, promote the growth of local businesses.”

Nigerians, particularly public servants, civil society, youth, women’s
groups and traditional leaders to support the People’s Democratic Party
