Christopher Imumolen, presidential candidate of the Accord party, says part of his party’s campaign will focus on providing solutions to Nigeria’s challenges.

The Accord presidential candidate said this at a recent interactive session held with supporters in Abuja.

“As a responsible political party, Accord has been actively involved in promoting democratic values, just as we have been in the vanguard of enhancing the quality of the lives of our people through our various empowerment programmes,” he said.

“Our popularity stems from what we represent, hence the huge confidence in our ability by the people, especially at a time we are gunning for the seat of president of the country.

“So, we are going to be sticking with this standard we have set, as we will not just be campaigning with promises but with solutions.

“Unlike some other contestants whose style is vote buying, we would be doing tangible things that will endure in the life of the people.

“For instance, when you give out scholarships to thousands of cash-strapped students in order to help their academic pursuits, or give out loans to farmers to enhance their agricultural activities, or give financial aid to SMEs, you are doing something in their lives that would endure.

“I think that’s a much better way to affect the lives of the people than trying to buy their votes on a massive scale on election day.”
