Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, promised on Friday to serve Nigeria “tirelessly, faithfully, and honestly” if he wins the February 25th election.

During a town hall meeting with the youth in Abuja, organized by Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State with the theme “Nigeria 2023: Setting the Youth Agenda,” Tinubu stated that he would create a thriving digital economy and adequately train, compensate, and manage security personnel if elected.

He also said that he has purposely surrounded himself with brilliant youths because he believes in a democracy of ideas, teamwork, and collaboration. Tinubu called on the youths to vote for him, assuring them they would not regret it.

The former governor of Lagos State was accompanied at the event held at Chida Hotel by several governors, including Yahaya Bello (Kogi) and Simon Lalong (Plateau), as well as the ex-governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole, and the Minister of Youths and Sports, Sunday Dare, among other APC leaders.
