Ribadu To Revisit Oil Exploration In The North-east by 4dgood: 5:51pm On Mar 09, 2011 |
The presidential candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria in the forthcoming general elections, Nuhu Ribadu, has promised that if elected as president, his administration will ensure that the north-east sub-region gets its fair share of federal presence, assuring that the issue of oil exploration in the region will be revisited. Mr. Ribadu who was in Bauchi for the presidential campaign and flag-off of the north-east zonal rally of the party, declared that Nigerians are tired of the negative rule of the PDP and will flush it out in the next general election, expressing optimism that his party will form the next government at all levels in the country. On the issue of corruption, the ACN presidential candidate also said that his administration will fight corruption among all Nigerians, no matter their status in the society. He stressed that Nigeria has enough resources to go round everybody but a privileged few have made all the available resources theirs to the detriment of the majority who are poor. He then called on Nigerians to vote for all the candidates of the ACN at all levels in order to have good governance that will be responsible to all in terms of revenue sharing anddevelopment plans. In his address, former Lagos State governor, Ahmed Tinubu, assured that the ACN is ready to fight the PDP for the control of the country becauseaccording to him, "People are desirous of change and it is only ACN that can give them the required quality leadership that will bring about positive developmental change in the country". The national chairman of the party, Bisi Akande, while presenting the party's flag to all the candidates in the north-east zone, called on the electorate to vote for them in order to bring about positive change in the zone stressing that the PDP has failed to deliver to Nigerians the desired dividends of democracy in the last 12 years of its being inpower. |
