Buhari Declares: I Will Run A Market-Based Economy; No More Room For Corruption



The presidential candidate of APC, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, has assured that, if elected as the President on March 28, 2015, his government will run a market-based economy with a clear and unambiguous regulatory framework and effective enforcement mechanism to checkmate corruption.

A statement signed by APC Presidential Campaign Organisation’s director of media and publicity, Garba Shehu, quoted Buhari as saying that the APC-led government “will insist on and cut out wastages and run a lean and efficient administration in order to have funds available for capital and development projects that will assure prosperity for all Nigerians.”

He also quoted Buhari to have said that ahead of his town hall meeting scheduled for Nike Lake Resort in Enugu today, his presidency will deepen a viable free market economy in Nigeria and that businesses will enjoy marked differences in the environment for undertaking their various activities.

The statement added that both local and foreign investors including young entrepreneurs under the APC government will enjoy equal incentives and friendly business and investment climate.

“It is envisaged that this will help them to participate and engage in productive economic and entrepreneurial activities geared towards the resuscitation and revamping of the nation’s economy and its capacity to generate millions of direct and indirect job opportunities for our teeming citizens,” Shehu said.

He added that APC’s national economic policy will support and insist on diligent implementation of annual budgets to guarantee accountability and transparency in public resources management.
