The Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, has called on Nigerians to unite and elect a president that is mobile, digital that can plan for his people and has a destination he is taking his people to.

He said Nigeria needs a President who is abreast of the new world social order and is capable of initiating positive change in the nation.

He stated this yesterday in Calabar, Cross River State when he visited Governor Ben Ayade in continuation of his nationwide tour to seek delegates' support across the country.

"There is a new world order that is out there. A new world order that requires a new type of leadership. A new order that requires a president that is mobile, digital, that has vision, that can plan for his people and has a destination he is taking his people to. We have seen this evolve across the world and everybody is waiting for when it will come to Nigeria. Distinguished excellency, it has come at this time," he said.

He cautioned that Nigeria could not afford to make another mistake in voting a leader that would take the country back to the analogue age next year.

"We cannot afford to make the mistake. It is not just about voting out the All Progressives Congress (APC). It is about restoring Nigeria.

"To do that, we need a capable president that knows what the issues are. Today we must develop this country and address the hunger and deprivation."

Meanwhile a Kwara-based group is mobilising youths to a Mass Rally in solidarity with the presidential ambition of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki on Saturday, September 15, 2018.

Speaking to newsmen on Wednesday in Ilorin, the Convener of the forum, Mr Abdulmajeed Olanrewaju Oba, said the March became necessary owing to the immense contributions to the state when Saraki was governor of the state and senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
