NIGERIA IS THE POVERTY CAPITAL OF THE WORLD- We must invest in our people. Nigeria's greatest resource is not oil or gold or cobalt;it's the Nigerian people. Sowore fought against structural adjustment programs; SAP dictated that Nigeria should not invest in hospitals,education,water and other human amenities. As student union leaders,Sowore and co fought for education reform.
We must provide energy. Raise the power supply from 3000MW to 24,000MW. We must make Nigeria secure for Nigerians wanting to come back to Nigeria. We must invest in food security,agriculture;Not subsistence farming . We must send Nigerians to school;
30Million Nigerians are out of school. Not enough space in our universities. We plan to train people in school for jobs. We plan to provide 5 Million jobs in 3 critical areas; 100K Naira minimum wage. The people who are condemning 100K minimum wage are the people that are receiving 14M wages. It takes 35 years for a Nigerian worker earning 30K month to earn the salary of a senator.
SECURITY We cannot move forward with bad leadership. We don't have people who are fighting Boko Haram but people who are doing business with Boko Haram. Sahara Reporters reported that Army Generals were using Boko Haram as a pretext to steal. When Buhari came in,they found money everywhere that belonged to the army generals. Yet the investigation was shut down. There is always some elite benefiting from our security issues,whether it be Kidnappings or herdsmen. Sowore plans to fire all the army generals. Sowore was told by an army official that we are able to defeat Boko Haram in one month. We must get rid of our Political Leaders,Political soldiers,Political Customs Officers who are not working in our interest.
CORRUPTION Sowore has fought corruption before,as a reporter,as an activist. The anti-corruption fight in Nigeria is a farce.The people in charge of anti corruption are too powerful. Judges are serving for corrupt persons. People are not being punished even when they are found guilty of corruption. We need to use technology to fight corruption. Such as fingerprint scanners,retina scanners. Why are universities using contracts to buy laptops? We need to deter people from stealing. We need to stop respecting corrupt people,stop giving them awards,stop referring to them with prestigious titles.
EDUCATION
Spend 100K each per year for sending kids to school. It will buy books,meals,pay teachers.[/b]Institutionalize investment in eductaion. Its shameful that Sowores daughter has more books in her room,than his former school in Nigeria. Sowore wonders how his son has access to tablets,yet university students here do not. [b]We can have remote teaching thru internet teaching. We need free education. 100K Study allowance for university students,If you go on to work in public sector,you won't have to pay it back.
Wetin Sowore dey do, im no fit speak hausa just enter Kano begin raise hand. Anyway, i like the guy, he has been very bold from his student union presidency days. I remember when he was stripped naked at freedom square, New halls Unilag in the full glare of everyone, the guy jumped down from the first floor and escaped from his assailants. Was running masters then. He has indeed been fighting for 30yrs. A true veteran of the struggle.

IbrahimDamola: Why was he stripped and who were his assailants.
He was a torn in the flesh of men during the SUG Anti-cult campaign. Men came after one particular night. He was captured, injected with lead substance and stripped unclad. I doff my hat for him. He is courageous.

Why can't Nigerians vote for him instead of slaving around the two fulanis? Here is a full fledged graduate, vibrant young man and courageous fellow. Why choose a lifeless, clueless old man and another voracious crooked thief? Nigerians are not sincere to themselves and can never be liberated if any of the two fulanis wins the presidency.
Look at Sowore, surrounded by young men, real youths. What else does the youths of Nigeria wants? You complained those leading you are too old, God sent you a youthful candidate but you're not hyping him at all. Instead nah fight and banters over fulani old men. Fulanis are only adept at one thing - jihad(blood letting) ,stealing and cattle rearing. Leadership is not in their traits.
