Breaking; Saraki declares for presidency

Nigerian senate president, Bukola saraki has announced that he will be running for presidency in the 2019 general elections under The people’s democratic party (PDP).

He made the declaration during a public dialogue with political parties on youth candidacy and party primaries in Abuja today, saying his move for the presidency is in response to agitation of nigerians for change.

”Up and down our country today, Nigerians are crying out for succour. Many of our children are hungry. Our young people lack opportunities. The necessary education facilities and system to equip them for the future simply do not exist,”  Saraki said.

“We are not creating the jobs needed to usefully engage them in order to grow our economy. And too often, the youth feel shut out, prevented from having any say in the direction of this nation,”

“ It is with all these in mind, and taking account of the challenges that I have outlined, that I have decided to answer the call of teeming youth who have asked me to run for President. I do so with the firm conviction that I have what it takes to secure inclusive growth for Nigeria and Nigerians,” Saraki said.

The senate president also talked on the current state of poverty, poor education hunger and terrorism the country is currently faced with, saying that “Nigeria needs a revival that he can bring”.

“We must rebuild the trust of our people in government. We need a new generation of leaders that are competent, with the capability to rise to the challenges of the 21st century. We must pull this country back together and rebuild, block by block, with dedication and commitment,” He futher added.
