Yusuf-Sani said during a campaign rally in Bida on Tuesday that he would address insecurity and poverty if Nigerians would vote for him during the polls.
“I will tackle insecurity head-on to pave way for economic growth and development of this great country.
“We will support farmers, activate dams, provide agricultural input, provide sound and qualitative education and also fight criminality,’’ he said.
The candidate assured the electorate that if Nigerians voted for him and his running mate, Dr Okey Udo, they would tackle the country’s economic challenges for the country to move forward.

Yusuf-Sani promised to address unemployment for the nation to move forward.
“I will do everything humanly possible to create more jobs to accommodate the large number of our unemployed graduate.
“We are the credible alternative. We know the pains of Nigerians and the solutions. We will harness Nigeria’s large gas deposits, sand and wind mills as well as hydro power to create employment as a solution to insecurity.
“Your vote for ADP is a vote for Nigeria. Vote for ADP, don’t waste your vote “, Yusuf-Sani said.
