Governance, in a democratic dispensation, can only be offered, that is, supplied by the elected; they determine it. Character, competence and capacity informed the choice of my running mate. My cabinet is going to be a youthful cabinet and the same qualifying metrics of character, competence and capacity will be at play where everyone that would solve a problem in our government would be weighed along those three criteria. It is going to be a cabinet of equality of opportunity, men, women, young people and every other person who has got the basic interest of Nigeria at heart; those who want to offer sacrificial leadership, leadership of a different kind. What they do now with federal character is they have converted it to a race to the bottom.
