The All Progressives Congress (APC) is set to unveil its manifesto, designed as a “Roadmap to a New Nigeria”, at the Party’s National Summit to be held in Abuja Today, March 6th.
The Interim National Publicity Secretary of the party, Alhaji Lai Mohammed in a statement issued in Lagos and sent to Skytrend News said that the Road-map will detail the party’s priorities in fixing the wide spread failings of successive PDP governments since 1999, in order to bring hope and succour to the long-suffering people of Nigeria.
Alhaji Mohammed added that the manifesto was a product of an empirical and painstaking process embarked upon by the APC, in a deviation from the old practice of packaging a party’s manifesto on a whim.
”With conditions deteriorating throughout Nigeria, with security an ever increasing concern, with the lack of jobs pushing families and young people further and further into poverty and with new stories of corruption within the PDP government appearing day after day, the APC decided to commission the largest ever public opinion survey in Nigerian history to determine the current status of things in the nation directly from those who knew best – the actual people of Nigeria.
”The voice of the people was clear: The nation is going in the wrong direction. The nation wants change and would not vote to re-elect Jonathan in part because the number one issue to Nigerians is jobs and the nation believes Jonathan has no credibility on the issue of job creation,” APC said.
According to the party, the unveiling of the party’s manifesto, designed with the survey results in mind and the real needs of the Nigerian people made evident by the people themselves, will be the clearest indication yet that the Movement for Change has indeed begun.
