Our triple banner should form the substructure for a new Nigeria which an APGA government at the centre under my watch would bring about.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUppermost in my mind is how to reconcile with ourselves across the length and breadth of our dear country. In a new political culture, I undertake to galvanize the old, young, rich, poor, literate or not from different religious persuasions and from all six geo-political zones to deliver a new Nigeria where justice would reign for all citizens equally irrespective of tribe or status.<\/p>\n<p>On the thematic focus of his government if elected, Umeadi said, \u201cI will work assiduously for sound education, affordable health care, food on the table, security of life and property and ability to achieve life ambitions in a setting presenting a level playing field and pre-determined standards.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI pledge also to remove my personal interest in its entirety from the picture in the course of my official duties if elected.
