“I have met with leaders, elder statesmen and women, youths, people living with disabilities and Nigerians from all walks of life.

“I have listened to their challenges. I am even now more persuaded to take Nigeria further on the path of greatness as your President in 2023.

“Of all the challenges we face as a nation, the security situation remains of great concern. This is why it is topmost on my agenda. Only through a secure environment will there be opportunities for economic prosperity and growth.
