The presidential candidate of the Young Progressives Party, YPP, Peter Agada has challenged other presidential candidates, Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi to move beyond rhetoric and present workable plans to Nigerians.
Agada threw this challenge on Wednesday while fielding questions in an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Morning Show’.
He said Nigeria's governance failure is that elected leaders spend their tenure diagnosing problems and setting up committees instead of executing clear programmes.
"For decades, political campaigns in Nigeria have been treated like poetry contests.
"I challenge my fellow presidential candidates; Tinubu, Atiku and Peter Obi to present their plans for Nigerians,” Agada said.
According to him, any candidate promising jobs, improved healthcare and economic revival must tell Nigerians how, when and with what figures such promises will be delivered.
The YPP flagbearer also decried poor coordination among government agencies, saying it is responsible for abandoned and non-functional projects across the country.
He cited the health sector, noting that a hospital built without access roads, water and electricity cannot serve the people.
DAILY POST reports that Agada is one of the 18 candidates cleared by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, for the 2027 presidential poll.
