Ahmed Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has promised to restore hope to Nigerian youngsters by creating thousands of employment if elected president in the upcoming general elections.
Tinubu made the assurance during an APC presidential campaign rally in Yenagoa, the capital of Bayelsa State, on Thursday.
Tinubu, who bemoaned the state’s poor state of development since 1999 under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said Bayelsa deserved what he had done in Lagos as governor.

He said: “The Poverty Development Party (PDP), you know them, has collected your money since the creation of this state, and couldn’t provide the roads. Where is the job? I will create thousands of expert employment, technical hub to link you to the rest of the world.
“For 24 years in government, they cannot point to one solid road. No road except the only one to get us here. We have to get our brooms to sweep them out in 2023.
“Today, the youths are the new hope; their salvation is here in our party, development is back, happiness is here. We will be able to create jobs. Bayelsa is the most industrious and most blessed with mineral resources of the country but not well explored.
“Tell them enough is enough. They lie too much. They blame everything on the Federal Government while they collect all the money. This is the broom revolution and we have to let us renew the hope of prosperity.”

“Bayelsa is an APC state, despite they stole our victory, and that is why they don’t know what they want to do with it,” said the party’s leader in the state, Chief Timipre Sylva. According to data, Bayelsa is the country’s second poorest state.
“We are talking about a great personality, Senator Tinubu who has a record that nobody can beat. Sometimes, people ask why I am so sure of Tinubu winning, and I ask them who is contesting with him because they don’t have any record. What did Obi do in the eight years in Anambra but we can all say a lot about the eight years of Tinubu and we can still see what is happening in Lagos today.
“Today, we have a youth population that is largely unemployed; who is going to create the opportunity to employ them? Tinubu is the man.
