Mr Malik Ado-Ibrahim has emerged as the 2023 presidential candidate of the Young Progressives Party (YPP).

He polled 66 votes to beat his rival, Ruby Isaac-Chinenye at the party’s presidential primary in Abuja.

In his acceptance speech, he promised to address the country’s security challenges, create jobs and revamp the economy if elected to office in 2023.

“We have minds that are young. We have people in the North that are doing amazing things in agriculture. I would champion your cause. We will feed Nigeria from the North, we will power Nigeria with the sun from the North, and we will bring it down to the South, to give light to our brothers.

“I promise you, I can do that, I am doing it. We are going to show you everything that Nigeria is about. We will show you how to be progressive, how to use technology to make this country better.

“I assure you, we have the capacity, the vision for that,” Ado-Ibrahim said. (Channels TV)
