#ElectionBuzzNig’23
Mr. Ado Ibrahim, a Presidential aspirant under the Young Progressives Party, YPP, has picked the Nomination and Expression of Interest form at the party’s headquarters in Abuja, the nation’s capital.
While picking the form in Abuja, he said that Nigeria must move ahead of the 2023 general election by putting an end to money politics.
According to him, Nigeria desperately needs someone who will proffer solutions, a goal-getter, a doer, and not a talker to pilot the country’s affairs in the 2023 election and beyond.
MONEY POLITICS
“I am uniquely placed from Kogi State, north-central Nigeria, to unify this country.
“We desperately need somebody who will proffer a solution for unity, somebody who doesn’t have personal interest but possesses a pride and patriotism at heart.
“Politics of money needs to end in 2023. The display of wealth attributed to delegates is just too much for somebody who has the interest of this country at heart.
I want a better Nigeria, and I believe I am in the best party, YPP, to gather the thoughts and hopes of the younger generation.”
GENDER INCLUSION
He said if elected as the President of Nigeria, he would bring a breath of fresh air in innovation, security, infrastructures, and gender inclusivity.
“We are sitting in a nation of fifty percent of women that gave birth to the other fifty percent, and we need to bring them in.
“To show them we are inclusive, a nation that brings its women together is a better and more effective country and we need to show that in Nigeria,” Mr. Ibrahim explained.
SINGLE FOREIGN EXCHANGE
Mr. Ibrahim also noted that he would restructure the country’s financial sector by changing the currency regime to a single foreign exchange currency rate.
He said this would encourage investment and allow foreign direct investment to come into the country, pushing down the Naira rate considerably.
“I would change the currency regime to be a single foreign exchange currency rate.
EXPORT PRODUCTION
“It’s the number one thing we are going to do. We have to build this nation back to where things like Agriculture used to be. We need to build a country that produces things for export, not producing things to eat.
“We have an agricultural mindset. That is one way to produce something; we eat it if we can’t sell it. If we aim to succeed in agriculture, we must build to sell and make money to eat whatever we want.
These will be our typical guild in agriculture to build the country’s economy,” Mr. Ibrahim noted.
The Presidential Aspirant added that the YPP showed progressiveness as a party Nigerians needed to move the country forward.
