The former vice-president also plans to sell all four national refineries, and cut corporate income tax to be one of the lowest in Africa.
According to the Atiku Abubakar policy document seen by TheCable, the 71-year-old plans to create three million jobs per year.
The policy document was put together with a major delivery timeline of 2019 to 2025.
Atiku also plans to raise Nigeria’s gross domestic product (GDP) by almost 90 percent to $900 billion by 2025.
“The State’s critical policy priority is to build a broadbased, dynamic and competitive economy with a GDP of US$900 billion by 2025,” the policy document read.
The former customs boss also proposes to raise foreign direct investment (FDI) to 2.5 percent of GDP.
“Working towards achieving the LOWEST corporate income tax rate in Africa; Strengthening the credit guarantee initiatives of Infra-Credit by substantially increasing its capital base; Lower transaction costs: capital
gains taxes etc.”
Other items on Atiku’s plan include, building 5,000 kilometres of roads, and 5,000 kilometres of modern railway.
The plan is built on four cardinal points: jobs, infrastructure, poverty eradication, and human capital development.
The Atiku policy document also seeks to “improve spending efficiency of the federal government and drastically reduce the share of recurrent revenue in the budget from 70% to 35% by 2025”.
According wthe document, Atiku also seeks to implement the petroleum industry bill, ensure Nigeria refines over one million barrels of oil per day, and generate 20,000 megawatts of power by 2025.
Via a combination of policies, the former vice-president also seeks to lift 50 million Nigerians out of poverty, by 2025.
“Poverty does not simply have one solution; rather it requires the concerted application of many solutions,” Atiku said.
“Nigeria has vast natural resources, but our challenge remains harnessing these resources for the greatest good”.

NNPC was more accountable under GEJ, today there is no transparency. It's run like a bank for the presidency.

Let it be sold. So that the private sector can be fully involved in oil and Gas and not just a few .

What of in case of petrol scarcity who do we turn to

Keep lying to yourself. Sanusi exposed a missing $40 billion under the same Jonathan.

if by privatization he means listing it in the nigerian stock exchange and selling the shares to the public then i'm totally in support of it. But if it is to private indivuduals without going public, then its a no.

After spending billions of dollars for the election, how will his investment be recouped if he don't acquire NNPC.

President Buhari should be reelected to move Nigeria forward. The 16 years mess is not fixed in 3.5 years is NOT a reason to bring back those that created the mess to restart their looting spree.

NNPC is the most corrupt government parastatal in the world according to Transparency International

Sell it in New York as a quoted company and see what success story it will be.

Atiku definition of privatization is selling it to his cronies in PDP just as NEPA was sold to PDP during the last administration. Perhaps Atiku will sell the NNPC to himself through proxy. He did that when Nitel was sold. His first mission is to regroup the Billions he spent during the PDP Presidential primary in Rivers. No to Atikulooting

Nitel gave way for MTN, GLO, 9MOBILE and others

In your own unbiased assessment which of them has created up to 3million direct and indirect employment to Nigerians?

We thank God for Mr Atiku at this point in our national life. Somebody is coming into government prepared. I keep asking people, will you in all honesty keep your own loss making private business?.

Bogus plan
Currently we have 7000 MW
APC added 3k mw IN 3 years and promises to add another 4k mw in next 4yrs.

Atiku promised to increase it from 7k mw to 25k mw in 4 years.
The same Atiku and pdp spent 16 billion USD yet no single MW Was added.
How do they intend to increase energy from 7k to 25k

Sometimes you just have to do some research on your own, you don't have to keep swallowing everything you read on nairaland here.

How many power station has Buhari built?
