He also said youths unemployment will be addressed with about 12-15% of the budget allocated to agriculture.
“With genuine commitment to build a New Nigeria, the MOP will return power to the people and that is why we brought this message to Kabba, because of the strategic location of Kogi state, not minding the present oppressive government in Kogi.
“On the security, once again, let us all clearly note that ultimately, the more we secure the future of Nigerian people, the less insecurity there will be.
“The budgetary allocation to education will be 25% and the very best of hands who are Nigerians will be called upon to revive the educational sector, with a review of our archaic curriculum.
“It is time to organize the Nigerian people and build the most advanced stage of political process that will remove charlatans masquerading themselves as the peoples leaders, be it at the federal, state and local government levels.
“With this inauguration, let all our oppressors be prepared for the movement of the people. Enough is enough!,” he said.
After observing a one minute silence in respect of all the victims of #EndSARS protest who died across the country, coordinators for MOP across the 21 local governments in Kogi state were inaugurated.
