The All Progressives Congress Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has vowed to convert “Yahoo Boys” into experts in technology should he win the forthcoming presidential race.
He stated this during his campaign rally in Benin, the Edo State capital on Wednesday.
According to him, he would transform “Yahoo boys,” aka “advance fee fraudsters” by creating technological hubs for them.
He said:
“I will convert Yahoo boys and make them useful by converting their talents and intellects to produce chips for industries. We can defeat poverty, ignorance and homelessness. We have the knowledge, we have the brain to do it. Trust me. I am an expert in finding the way where there is no way. I found a way to tame the Atlantic in Lagos and turn it to money- making machine.
“Sociologically, we can make mountains, we can climb Kilimanjaro, we can defeat poverty. We will break the shackle of poverty, ignorance and homelessness.”
He then urged the crowd of supporters at the University of Benin Sports Complex, Ugbowo, to vote for him, if they wanted to be rich.
The former Lagos State governor also canvassed reparation by some European nations for returned Benin artefacts.
