Nigerians will get reliable electricity if I’m re-elected — Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has promised reliable electricity, more jobs and a lower cost of living if re-elected, speaking at an APC campaign rally in Dutse, Jigawa State.

President Bola Tinubu has promised to provide reliable electricity, create more job opportunities and reduce the cost of living if re-elected in 2027.

Tinubu made the pledge on Tuesday at the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign rally in Dutse, the Jigawa State capital.

“We will lower the cost of living. We will provide reliable power, not the whole privatisation that is not working. We will provide you with reliable power in this Nigeria,” Tinubu said.

He said his administration would prioritise building a stronger industrial base and support nano, micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.

The President pledged to sustain the removal of petrol subsidy and channel funds recovered by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) into the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND).

He also promised to establish six mechanised farming service centres across the six geopolitical zones, Nigerian Tribune reported.

Tinubu added that investment in irrigation and agricultural research would increase to boost food production and reduce food prices.
