"This administration signed a pact of infrastructural and human capital development with the people during electioneering campaign and fulfillment of this pact has just started. They have not seen anything yet.

"The target is to surpass the previous administrations, including the last one in the areas I have highlighted and continue to do those good things people never thought possible till the administration 'breasts the tape," he boasted.
