We took a poll of the people of the state and we are certain that people want ‘change’ in the state, they are tired of the status quo, tired of the same set of people that have been ruling the state for the past two decades and definitely need a change”.

Salihu also pledged that It will be a government for the young people, by the young people and definitely driven by them as well.
