—Insist on and cut out wastages and run a lean and efficient administration
The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, General Muhammadu Buhari, has pledged that his administration will run a market based economy; with clear and unambiguous regulatory framework and effective enforcement mechanism with zero tolerance for corruption.
Buhari was quoted to have promised that his APC-led government “will insist on and cut out wastages and run a lean and efficient administration in order to have funds available for capital and development projects that will assure prosperity for all Nigerians.”
This was contained in a statement by the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation, in Abuja, on Sunday.
The statement which was signed by the organisation’s Directorate of Media and Publicity, quoted Buhari to have said this ahead of his town hall meeting at the Nike Lake Resort in Enugu on Monday.
He was also quoted to have said that his envisaged presidency will deepen a viable free market economy in the country and that businesses will enjoy marked differences in the environment for undertaking their activities.
According to him, Nigerian citizens in business, foreign investors and young entrepreneurs under the APC presidency will enjoy equal incentives and friendly business and investment climate.
Director of the Media and Publicity of the campaign, Malam Garba Shehu said, “It is envisaged that this will help them to participate and engage in productive economic and entrepreneurial activities geared towards the resuscitation and revamping of the nation’s economy and its capacity to generate millions of direct and indirect job opportunities for our teeming citizens.”
Shehu also said that APC’s national economic policy will support, and insist on diligent implementation of annual budgets to guarantee accountability and transparency in public resources management.
