Mark also promised to turnaround Nigeria’s economy within two years of being voted into power.
“Anybody who has come here to collect the forms has a blueprint; the blueprint which we title 7:30 representing just two years,” he said.
“In two years, if given the opportunity, we will turn the economy of this country round, we will solve these security problems, we will bring Nigerians together. The level of distrust in the government today has never been experienced in the history of this country.
“I have a very good military background and has been in politics since 1998. I think I have got the credentials to be able to do what I have promised my team.
“Obviously there are priority areas and restructuring is one of them. I think the time has come to restructure this country.”
