According to him, his administration will build processing plants that will convert the state’s first line raw materials to finished products, which will provide decent jobs for the teeming unemployed population of the state.

“Our battle for growth in the past 28 years have been seriously hampered by corruption. I will be committed to ending corruption in our system within the first year in office to pave way for an all-inclusive growth if voted into power.”

“Security of lives and property is one of the basic functions of government. I am aware that Kogi State is not immune to the present security challenge we have as a country and I will make frantic efforts at protecting both Kogi citizens and non-indigenes living in Kogi State through strengthening of our security apparatus by provision of adequate equipment, including intelligence gadgets for easy information gathering and communications”, he said.

He also said that if elected, his administration would give attention to improvements of the educational system, healthcare delivery, urban renewal and overall infrastructural development in the state.
