Bakare said, “I’m formally announcing that I’m running for the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“We will rebuild Nigeria’s economy around six competitive geo-economic zones, triple Nigeria’s GDP to $1.5trn by 2030 and industrialise Nigeria around the hub-and-spoke model of industrialisation.”
