During his speech, the LP presidential candidate said he will destroy the structure of criminality which has plagued Nigerians into poverty.
He had said: “Let me assure you of what we’ve been campaigning on. You have heard them say we don’t have structure; that is the structure we are trying to destroy the structure of criminality.”
