Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for president, has released his action plan to transform Nigeria ahead of the general elections in 2023.
According to a statement by Bayo Onanuga, a spokesman for Tinubu’s Presidential Campaign Council, the 80-page paper, which contains multi-sectoral policy choices, is titled “Renewed Hope 2023 – Action Plan for a Better Nigeria.”
When President Muhammadu Buhari leads governors, NWC members, and other APC leaders to the PCC inauguration at the State House on Friday, Onanuga claimed that Tinubu and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima, will reveal their Action Plan for the transformation of the nation.
In the document’s foreword, Tinubu stated that his ideas came to him after travelling the length and width of the nation and talking to people from various socioeconomic backgrounds.

When chosen as President Buhari’s successor in February 2019, the former governor of Lagos State will prioritise national security, the economy, agriculture, power, oil and gas, transportation, and education, according to the document.
Additionally, Tinubu provided policy alternatives for the federalism/decentralization of power, foreign policy, women’s empowerment, digital economy, healthcare, and women’s empowerment.
He pledged to make significant investments in young entrepreneurship, sports entertainment, and culture in order to create more jobs and opportunity for millions of Nigerian youths.
In addition, Tinubu promised to expand and maintain the vast Social Investment Programs put in place by the Buhari administration.

“Our nation’s history affirms that our people constitute our most valuable treasure. Whether the hardworking farmer, the industrious market woman, the dynamic young entrepreneur or the hopeful child, Nigerian people rank among the best anywhere. They excel in every aspect of human endeavour when given a fair chance,” Tinubu was quoted as saying.
“Senator Shettima and I have traversed every part of our beloved nation, listening to the concerns of our fellow citizens. Young and old, poor and rich, educated and uneducated, Christian and Muslim; all have expressed their views and concerns. People do not seek superficial answers to hard questions. Nor do they want the broken, unimaginative, failed promises repackaged and fed to them again. They want true and innovative solutions which address the challenging realities of today.
“Our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) was founded on the premise that the people of our beloved country are entitled to the benefits that only progressive good governance can procure.”
