“The power state will become the more powerful state. Our economic plan will make strategic investments in industry and infrastructure, giving our talented people a chance to make a good living while producing valuable goods that will improve the quality of life for those who buy them.

“Federal roads such as the Minna-Bida road, Lambata-Bida road, Suleja-Minna road, Birnin Gwari-Jebba road, and Minna-Kotangora road will be improved such that they become better avenues of travel and commerce for wellbeing and prosperity of all of us.

“My action plan calls for a modern railway network such that you shall be able to move the things you make and produce to markets throughout Nigeria, West Africa, and beyond.

“We must continue to plant and grow the seed of food security by pressing forward with the expansion of our agricultural sector.

“We will return farming to its glorious past by giving it an even better future. We shall ensure that farmers realise the full value of their produce.
