AT SOUTH-SOUTH APC STAKEHOLDERS TOWNHALL MEETING IN CALABAR, TINUBU VOWS TO INDUSTRALISE NIGERIA.
APC Presidential Candidate Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, his running mate Kashim Shettima, Director General of the Campaign Council Simon Bako Lalong and other top leaders of the party on Tuesday 20th December 2022 stormed Calabar, Cross Rivers State for a Town Hall meeting on National Transformation and Industrialization.
Addressing the meeting, Tinubu said his administration will focus on promoting economic growth through creation of industrial hubs and harnessing the potentials of all zones of the country.
He said the foundation of Nigeria’s economic development was not completed because of gaps in the production chain particularly in the area of oil processing which gave room for imports above exports.
He said Nigeria has been blessed with people that have the capacity and ability to build the nation even in difficult times, saying he will mobilise the nation, assemble the right people and personally lead the initiatives for industrial revolution.
DG APC Presidential Campaign Council and Governor of Plateau State Simon Bako Lalong said Asiwaju is a man whose performance in the past gives strong assurance that he will do what he promises.
He cited the experience of Asiwaju as Governor of Lagos State which did not only create an environment for industries to thrive, but ensured that businesses are supported.
Cross River State Governor Prof. Ben Ayade said the South South has confidence in the ability of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to deliver on his promises to promote industrialisation within the country.
Tinubu also pleaded with some aspirants including Senator John Enoh, Barrister Mary Epkere to forgive and close ranks for the victory of the party.
