Oriontimes Political Desk| August 3, 2026

Presidential aspirant Chief Onwuasoanya Ezendigbo has outlined what he described as a bold reform agenda aimed at reducing the cost of governance and redirecting national resources to critical sectors.

Speaking on the state of the nation, Ezendigbo said that if elected President, his administration would sell Nigeria's official presidential private jets and significantly reduce the salaries and allowances of senators and ministers.

According to him, the funds saved would be invested in agriculture and education to boost food security, create jobs and improve learning across the country.

He also promised a more accountable government, saying he would address the nation through a press conference every two weeks where journalists would have the opportunity to ask questions directly.

Ezendigbo further pledged to regularly visit higher institutions across the country to engage students and stakeholders on policies that would promote national development.

Drawing inspiration from former Croatian President Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović, he said leadership should be driven by personal example and prudent management of public resources.

"If I become President, there will be a radical change. We have to lead by example," he said.
