Mr Labaran Maku, Nasarawa State Governorship candidate of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), has urged the electorate to come out en-mass to vote and protect their votes during the Feb. 23 and March 9 elections.

Maku made the call on Tuesday during his campaign at Panda, Karu Local Government Area of the state.

Maku promised to create a new commercial city in Karu if elected the next governor of the state.

According to him, given the proximity of the state with the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), he will create an enabling environment for investors to invest in the state.

“I will build a five star hotel, modern stadium of international standard, construct network of roads, standard hospitals, standard schools.

“I will also build other markets for traders in different products like it is in Onitsha  and other notable markets in the country.

“I will make sure goods found in Onitsha, Lagos, among others, are sold in the area at subsidised prices to reduce the burden on the people,” Maku said.

The APGA candidate also said that he would establish mining companies to partner the Federal Government to harness the abundant mineral resources in the state.

He explained that all these plans can only be achieved if there is adequate security measures.

“This is also the reason why I want to prioritise security because all these things would not be achieved without peace.

Maku also promised to construct Panda/Karu road  to boost the socio-economic activities of the people in the area.
