Nigeria’s Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo has vowed that the current All Progressives Congress (APC) administration led by President Muhammadu Buhari will not relinquish power to the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Osinbajo, who stated this on Sunday during his house-to-house campaign in Ifako-Ijaiye Local Government Area of Lagos State alleged that the grand corruption which plagued the 16 year administration of the PDP contributed to the lack of infrastructure for in the country.
The Vice-President stressed that the Buhari government would focus on the creation of jobs for youths, power and providing enough resources to financially empower petty traders and business owners.
His words: “The difference between us and the PDP is that we don’t steal government resources. We use it for the people. We earn less and we spend more on the welfare of people than the previous government.
“Everybody knows Buhari is an honest man. He will not steal public fund. We shall continue to fight corruption so that we can have enough money to provide infrastructure. We have to build on the foundation we have laid.
“The corrupt people will be jailed. That is why the corrupt elements in the opposition are desperate to regain power. We can’t leave government for the thieves. You should vote for APC because it is the only party that can do the job. We should not allow PDP to return to power.”
He added: “The next level will be much better than today. More power will be available to the people and there will be more infrastructure.Too much corruption has slowed our progress.
“That is why Buhari is fighting corruption. If there is no corruption, there will be money to carry out the developmental projects. Buhari will fight for young and old. He will not allow anybody to steal public funds.
“Government will decentralized power so that there will be adequate and efficient distribution of power in the country. Government will provide adequate electricity supply for the household, artisans, corporate organizations and business enterprise.”
