From Mika’il Tsoho, Dutse

The presidential candidate of New Nigerian People Party (NNPP) , Engineer Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso promised to improve security and educational sector if elected as next president of the federal republic of Nigeria.

Kwankwaso dropped the hint, while speaking to news men in Dutse, during his campaign visit to the state.

He said the number of all the security personnel is grossly inadequate.

The presidential candidate who promised to increase the security personnel by 400 percent said, “the numbers of Nigerian police, Military, Department of Security Service, Nigerian Civil and Security Defense Corps and all uniform personal can’t mans the security of this country”.

According to him, “considering the Nigerian population and compared with the number of security, there is no way that they (securty) can handle crime and criminal activities in Nigeria”.

“God willing when I be came Nigerian president, I will multiply the number of police, military, DSS civil defense etc by 400 percent”, Kwankwaso emphasis.

The NNPP presidential candidate noted that, “our plan here is apart from providing enough securty personal, it will also provide job opportunities to our teaming redundant youth and at the same time reduce the criminal activities by those youth”.

Engineer Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso also promised to introduce Community Participation Reorientation Committee (CPRC) “this is a new policy which under it we will made a provision of providing some funds to every political ward to be taking care and maintaining emergency and minus problems of all public facilities in their respective areas”.

“The committee members would be traditional and religious leaders, Wealthy Individuals, CBOs, second popular political party head of the facilities eg school, hospital etc”.

We did this in Kano when I was the governor it work perfectly and up to now is there practicing it”.

He further promised to review the JAMB, NECO and WAEC fees, “as parts of our efforts to support and give opportunities to the children of the common man to further their education to tertiary level”.

“We will look for cancelling of the fees and if not possible, we will consider cutting the amount to be affordable to majority, and the few can not would be paid by government”.

Kwankwaso said “Nigeria has enough resources to do that and even more than that. Our target to run a common man friendly government”. 

Speaking earlier the JIgawa state NNPP gubernatorial candidate, Alhaji Aminu Ibrahim Ringim called on the people to vote to all the party’s candidates at all levels for positive change.

He said “the party’s manifesto contained all the need and aspiration of the common man”.
