In his address, Datti assured that the party has all it takes to end the lingering insecurity and address the poverty problem in the country.
“All issues bedeviling the country have come to an end; we will hold your hands to say bye-bye to poverty, unnecessary killings, and kidnapping.
“We know all that it takes to solve the unfortunate problems. Job opportunities will be available, the economy will be improved and strengthened.
“As you can see the condition of poverty and hunger you were sunk into, we are the ones who know how to rescue you,” he told the gathering. (Channels TV)
