As Nigeria gears toward the 2023 general elections, the presidential candidate of Accord Party, Professor Chris Imumolen has stated that the country as a matter of urgency requires an economic revival.
Imumolen stated this while speaking as guest at the Glorious Life Pentecostal Church, Abeokuta, the Ogun state capital.
The Accord Party presidential candidate maintained that the economy and the power sector in the last seven years has been bastardised and requires a ‘talisman’ in his mould to revive it.
“The power sector has been bastardized. The older generation and past leaders tried their best, but their best is not enough. So chances should be given to the youth to direct the affairs of the nation.
“God is raising men to become leaders of this country and I am willing to make myself available”, he stated.
Imumolen also stated the need to revive the education system of the country, saying, an uneducated citizen spells doom for the socio-economic development of the country.
“Over 500,000 students have been given scholarship to higher education through my foundation, and if elected we will declare a national emergency on the sector in order to bring everyone on board.”
Meanwhile, the Ogun state chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Bishop Akin Akinsanya, in his remarks urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to live up to its promise of conducting the best election.
Represented by the General Secretary, Rev. Adeyemi, the CAN leader lauded the contributions of Imumolen to national development, saying that the project Nigeria is for everyone irrespective of religious or party affiliation.
