Yemi Osinbajo, Nigeria’s Vice President has ended months of speculations, on Monday, after declaring to run for the president next year. The Vice President said in a broadcast that his major task as president, is to lift millions of Nigerians out of poverty if he’s elected to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.

“If by the grace of God and the will of the people, I am given the opportunity, then I believe that first, we must complete what we have started, radically transforming our security and intelligence architecture,” Osinbajo said, adding that he will complete all the projects left President Muhammadu Buhari.

He said further that he intends to ensure food sufficiently in the country by “taking the agriculture revolution to the next level, especially mechanisation and developing the farm-to-table value chain; making sure that the government, its agencies, and regulators, serve the business community, creating a tech economy that will provide jobs for millions of young Nigerians; enhancing our social investment programme, to a full-scale social welfare program.”

Osinbajo also disclosed that “the provision of jobs and opportunities for our young people,” will also form one of the cardinal objectives of his administration.

“I now must solemnly and respectfully seek the support of fellow Nigerians everywhere in this land and the Diaspora, young and old, male and female, in the great and exciting journey that we have ahead of us, seek your own support. We will, working together, establish by the grace of God, the Nigeria of our dreams in a few short years. I am convinced beyond doubt we have the creativity, the courage, the talent, and the resources to be the foremost black nation on earth,”

Part of the broadcast read:

“Let us build a Nigeria where the man of Nnewi sees the man in Gusau as his brother, where the woman in Warri sees the woman in Jalingo as her sister, where the love of our nation burns alike in the hearts of boys and girls, from Gboko to Yenagoa, where everywhere in this land is home for everyone, where our diversities, our tribes, our faiths unite us rather than divide us.

“Let our tribe become one tribe, the Nigerian tribe, where all are treated fairly, justly, and with respect, where all her given equal access to the abundant opportunities that God has bestowed on this nation.”
