APC candidate promises annual N5bn for Lagos divisions
Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode
The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress for Lagos State in the 2015 general elections, Akinwunmi Ambode, says each of the five divisions of the state will get N1bn annually for youth empowerment, if he is elected into office.
He said every Lagosian, including residents of Ibeju Lekki, should plan for a bright future by voting only the APC candidates.
He added that the APC was the only party that could guide them to a better future.
Ambode spoke during the rally of the party in the Ibeju Lekki Local Government Area of the state, adding that the youth empowerment funds would be drawn from a trust that would be established.
He said, The N1bn for each of the five divisions will be drawn from a youth employment trust fund that will be established by our government to help the youth start their own businesses, thereby becoming employers of labour.
He also assured the residents that he would establish a credit scheme, from which beneficiaries would have access to between N100, 000 and N5m with zero interest.
He said, When you look at the American dollar, you dont see any religion or tribe written on it. The market doesnt have a tribe or a race, so dont let them deceive you. Asking you to vote for them based on religion or tribe is deceitful, which they are known for. Vote for us to secure your future; APC is the only party that can guarantee that.
You see what they have turned the economy into. If we dont rescue this nation, it will go bankrupt. Naira will continue to slide against the dollar. Let us not allow the people who cant manage the economy well; let us rise up and secure the future.
The APC candidate also assured the people of the Ibeju Lekki area that if voted into office, he would complete all major projects in the area, including the Lekki-Epe processing zone and the deep sea port to ease the pressure of heavy duty vehicles on the roads.
