While deploring the hardship occasioned by fuel scarcity in the country, Tinubu said his administration would bring the problem to an end.

The former governor assured that, if elected as president, he would ensure reduction in pump price of petrol and adequate supply of the product across the country.

He noted that Nigerians were resolute to make a difference and would go all out to cast their votes, even if conspirators tried to sabotage the electoral process with artificial fuel scarcity.

Tinubu said: “Even if they said there is no full, we will trek to vote.

“They hoarded money, they hoarded naira, we will go and vote and we will win, even if they change the ink on Naira notes.

“Whatever their plans, it will come to nought.

“We are going to win.

“Those in the PDP will lose.”

He said: “We will take over the government from them – the traitors who wanted to contest with us.

“They had no experience.

The great Nigerian youths, the great Nigerian students, the confident Nigerian youths.

“This election is a revolution.

“They are plotting, but they will fail.

“They said fuel price will increase and reach N2,000 per litre.

“Go and relax.

“They don’t want this election to hold.

“They want to scuttle it.

“But on this one, I’m guaranteeing you one thing: there will be student loan.

“Nobody will drop out of the university because of school fees.

“I guarantee you that.
