Saraki, a presidential hopeful, spoke on Tuesday, in Jos when he addressed delegates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from Plateau.

The former Kwara governor said the north-central had consistently supported other regions to lead the country and deserves similar support from other zones, this time.

“You remember that before the national convention of our party, we held a meeting in Abuja with delegates of north-central extraction,” Saraki said.

“We said to ourselves that for many times and many years, we, in the north-central, have worked hard, we struggled, used our efforts, used our money, used our energies to support other people to lead.

“Everybody, who had become president under this great party, got the seat because of our massive sacrifices.

“We have now resolved that it is time for others to vote for us in 2023.”

Saraki said the north-central has capable hands to address the myriads of problems bedeviling the country.

He said if given the opportunity, he will run an open government that will be transparent and fair to all Nigerians.

The presidential hopeful said insecurity and other challenges bedeviling Nigeria went out of hand because of lack accountability by the people that were responsible for tackling the issues.

“The problem of insecurity in Nigeria is because there has been no accountability,” he added.

“People have done things and nobody was held accountable for their failures.

“When I was senate president, we sat down with security agencies and drew a roadmap on how to address the issue of insecurity, but the report was abandoned.

“If I am the president, I will hold people accountable and they will do what is right to end insecurity and there will be no injustice.”
