Jonathan stated that his administration had always done what was best for Nigeria, saying: “I want to re-assure you that as a party, we will do our best to bring peace and security to the country, and fast-track economic development in all parts of the country.”

He also said that he was running for re-election in order to fulfill his commitment towards re-positioning the country positively amongst the comity of nations.

He said: “We have tarred over twenty-five thousand kilometres of the thirty six thousand kilometres (36, 000 km) Federal Roads and we promise to complete the remaining ones and open up more arterial roads when re-elected.”

The President also disclosed that over 90 per cent of narrow gauge rails have been completed throughout the country.

He said: “The implementation of the Nigerian content law in the oil industry has improved the participation of Nigerians in the industry and the implementation of our cabotage law with Nigerians now owning ships and more Nigerians have been employed in the shipping industry.”

“We also saw the need to establish Maritime University for high-powered man-power development in the Maritime Sector; we are moving the country forward,” Jonathan added.
