See the individual, exchange information, anything you know about insecurity, report it immediately. We have been through many wars. We will defeat our enemies. Enemies of unity, enemies of stability, enemies of all.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have strengthened the police, we have strengthened the armed forces, we are paying better salaries today,\u201d he said, promising that the forces would be well taken care of in housing and rewards, \u201cregardless of where they come from.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also dismissed talk that fuel subsidy would return. \u201cTo those who say subsidy is coming back, it\u2019s a lie. Don\u2019t let them lie to you again,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On agriculture, Tinubu promised relief for farmers and lower food prices. \u201cInterest-free loan for farmers is coming. Prosperity is coming. Food security will happen. We are going to instal mechanised farming service centre in six geographical locations\u201d, the president said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said universities would do more research and development in agriculture than ever before. \u201cWe have the arable land, we have the commitment, we have the people. We can feed ourselves and we will bring the food prices down to the minimum,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The President pointed to road projects as proof that no region had been left behind, and defended his education financing. He described the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) as \u201ca weapon against poverty,\u201d and said money recovered by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC would go to it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEvery money recovered from irregularities by EFCC is now directed to NELFUND to educate our children. Every asset through irregularities will be invested in NELFUND,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tinubu said he had commissioned a skill development centre on his way from the airport, and congratulated Governor Umar Namadi. He then presented the APC manifesto, listing its commitments to lives saved, a lower cost of living, reliable power, a stronger industrial base, support for small and medium businesses and wider job opportunities. He also listed quality health care, 20,000 additional teachers, health insurance expanded for more than 23 million people, affordable homes and secure lands, and a responsible and accountable government.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith a very strong commitment, today we present to you our roadmap to prosperity, the manifesto of our party. I once again launch the manifesto of our party to the glory of God almighty and prosperity of Nigeria\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier, Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, Senator Abdul\u2019aziz Yari recalled how opponents were campaigning that Tinubu would not be welcomed in northern Nigeria. \u201cYour Excellency, Mr President, these are your people, men and women and youths. This is Northwest, where our opponents are campaigning that you are not going to be welcomed in the northern Nigeria,\u201d Yari said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He praised Tinubu\u2019s record on democracy. \u201cYou show you are a real democrat, you have suffered for this democracy to be sustained, you have interfaced with the enemies of democracy and you won them. Today, they are enjoying your sweat,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yari said Tinubu\u2019s opponents had nothing more to offer than what the President had done for Nigeria and for the North. He challenged those who call themselves \u201ccore northerners\u201d to show that they had supported a councillor, a local government chairman or a governor to victory, as Tinubu had.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He recounted a request he made of the President in Saudi Arabia, asking him to pray for the success of the team. \u201cHe said, Abduraziz, you are already successful because Allah is with us and we are here to pray,\u201d Yari said.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2026\/11\/well-defeat-nigerias-enemies-tinubu-declares-in-jigawa\/\">We\u2019ll defeat Nigeria\u2019s enemies, Tinubu declares in Jigawa<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Source: <\/p>\n<div class=\"nSourse\">Vanguard News<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2026.President has won enemies of democracy \u2013 Yari By Omeiza Ajayi ABUJA: President Bola Tinubu has vowed to defeat those he described as enemies of Nigeria\u2019s unity and stability, telling&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14453,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14452","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14452","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14452"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14452\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14453"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14452"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14452"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14452"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
