President Bola Tinubu has promised to reduce the cost of living, improve electricity supply and expand employment opportunities if Nigerians renew his mandate in the 2027 presidential election.
Tinubu made the pledges on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, while addressing supporters at the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign rally in Dutse, the Jigawa State capital.
The President said his administration would work towards providing reliable electricity, strengthening Nigeria’s industrial base and supporting businesses to stimulate economic activities and create more jobs.
“We will reduce the cost of living. We will provide reliable power, not the whole privatisation that is not working. We provide you with reliable power in this Nigeria,” he said.
He also pledged to support nano, small and medium-sized enterprises, saying stronger businesses and industrial activities would create more employment opportunities and improve incomes.
“We will stimulate a stronger industrial base for our country. We will help nano, small-scale and medium-scale businesses. We will expand job opportunities for real income earners,” Tinubu added.
On agriculture, the President promised increased government support for farmers through subsidies and interest-free loans, alongside the establishment of mechanised farming centres across the country’s six geopolitical zones.
He said the measures were intended to improve agricultural production, strengthen food security and help reduce food prices.
Tinubu’s latest promises come as he seeks a second term in office, with economic conditions, electricity supply, unemployment and the cost of living remaining major issues in the political debate ahead of the 2027 general elections.
During his 2023 campaign, Tinubu also promised improved electricity supply and said Nigerians should not re-elect him if he failed to fulfil the commitment without providing adequate reasons.
His latest remarks have renewed attention on the administration’s electricity commitments and the expectations Nigerians will have of his proposed second-term agenda.
