Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has vowed to wipe out criminal elements operating in states in the North if elected president.
He also promised to fight the infrastructure battle in the North-West, provide jobs for teeming youths and transform the zone into an industrial hub as well as embark on massive road and rail development with stable power supply.
He spoke on Tuesday at the flag-off of the APC’s North-West presidential campaign, held at the Ahmadu Bello stadium in Kaduna.
He added that he would establish a marketing board to give both farmers and consumers standard prices on agricultural produce.
“All those troublemakers, all those kidnappers, killers who are troubling the security of Kaduna and northern Nigeria, I assure you, we will eliminate them,” he said.
“Everyone of you should go home with determination. Check your PVC, and do not let them deny you your PVC. If you have not collected your PVC, please, in the name of Almighty Allah that gives power, go and collect your PVC.
“Today, the sun is brighter, the sky is clear, and we don’t want to talk too much. We want you to go back home in peace, happiness, and joy.
“Our hope is here. We will do everything to make you the young ones properly employed. We will create jobs.
“We will establish a marketing board that will give you the right prices, that will give you comfort in your homes, and make you better [people].”
