Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress(APC), Bola Tinubu, has declared that the ruling party in Delta state, the People’s Democratic Party(PDP), has ruined the state, promising to fix it.
Tinubu made this statement at the APC rally at Warri Township Stadium in Delta state, on Saturday.
In a press release issued by his media office, Tinubu claims that the state is less developed than it was 30 years ago.

He said, “Delta has all it takes to be great and help lead the nation forward. Yet, for the past twenty-three years, those governing your state have taken you for a hard and long ride by selling you short. They have not done the things they should have and could have done for you.
“The infrastructure in the state was better 30 years ago than it is now. The state has recorded historic debts run up by the incumbent yet the infrastructure and other things still remain lacking because of under investment and neglect.
“The money is much but it does not have legs. Where did it go? Not to your welfare. Perhaps, it has found a home with a certain presidential candidate who loves Dubai more than Nigeria.
“But Delta State is not an ATM for migratory politicians. It is a place where good and hardworking people reside and work to create decent and peaceful lives for themselves and their families.”
Tinubu also promised to rebuild and clean up Delta state, promising to rebuild the infrastructure of the state and provide security in the state.
“My government will deploy new technologies to protect the safety and security of law- abiding Deltans as well as the critical national infrastructure situated in this state. We will also introduce greater funding and reform policies to bring the Nigerian police closer to the communities they serve,” he said.
