The candidate of the All Progressive Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has promised to ‘recharge’ Lake Chad if elected president in the 2023 general elections.
Tinubu, who made this promise on Tuesday at the flag off of the Kolmani Integrated Development Project in Bauchi State, said the project has created new opportunities for the country.
He said beyond Lake Chad, he will also ensure the construction of the Mambilla Hydro project to boost power supply in the country.
While praising President Muhammadu Buhari for remaining focused, he pledged to continue from where the president stops in 2023.
“Let me assure you that if I am elected president, I will recharge Lake Chad. You often talk about Mambilla and electricity. What a problem we have! Even though we are not within the parameters of arithmetic, you know a circle is a circle and once drawn, you have to break it in different ways,” Tinubu said.
