Buhari’ll create 720,000 jobs —Osinbajo

The Vice-Presidential candidate of the All Progressives
Congress, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo (SAN), says Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), will create 20,000 jobs in each
state of the federation.
Osinbajo said this at the Osogbo City Stadium on Wednesday
while addressing a crowd at the end of a 10-kilometre walk
tagged “Walk for Change Nigeria.”
He lamented the massive youth unemployment in the
country, saying the APC government would address this
immediately if Buhari was voted in as the President in
February.
He said, “We will provide 20,000 jobs in each of the states of
Nigeria when we are elected.
“We will revive our agricultural sector by providing a ready-
made market for farmers and encourage them, as the
government will be purchasing their farm produce.
“Our government will also engage in feeding of our primary
school pupils with free lunch across the country, just as we
will embark on massive road construction.
“The elderly and the physically challenged would also not be
left out as our government would be giving them
allowances.”
Osinbajo said the party had a strong belief that its
presidential candidate would be voted into power.
Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, while addressing the
crowd challenged President Goodluck Jonathan to come out
for a debate to defend himself on how he had run the
country.
He said that Jonathan had not done anything to deserve a
re-election.
Aregbesola stated that the President had fallen out of favour
even among the cleric while drawing the attention of the
people to the advice of Rev Fr. Ejike Mbaka, asking Jonathan
to resign.
Aregbesola urged Nigerians to troop out and effect change
through their votes in the February 14 election.
He said Buhari had resolved to turn around the fortunes of
Nigeria for the better.
