In her words...
"Yala nation is blessed with enormous potential, and from my
interactions with many of you, my hope and conviction for a
better and prosperous Yala is rekindled every day.
I see hope, and determination boldly written on your faces,
in spite of the many challenges and difficulties we face.
This unrelenting spirit of optimism gives me hope that we
must never give up on Yala, and Yala must be great again!.
It is a known fact that there is a huge disconnect and
a mismatch between our God-given potential and achievements,
despite this anomaly, it also presents an opportunity to
rekindle our innovative spirits and turn the Yala dream
into an enviable reality.
With an unrelenting commitment to a prosperous Yala nation,
and wide range consultations, I offer myself to serve as
the Chairperson of Yala LGA.
I offer myself in the spirit of Patriotism, Selflessness
and Optimism for a prosperous Yala nation.
I make this declaration today because of thousands of our
youths who are either underpaid or unemployed.
I make this declaration today for God to use me to free us from unimaginable suffering.
I make this declaration today because of the insecurity
that has claimed the lives of promising youths.
We are fed up with the antics of selfish politicians, whose
priority is self-aggrandizement.
It is time to change the sordid narration of the Yala nation.
It is time to entrust the future of Yala to a visionary, and pragmatic leader.
It is time for new leadership, where our youths are encouraged to fulfill their God-given potentials, and not
subjugated to slavery.
Yala youths are smart, relentless, visionary, and courageous. We must not let these potentials continue to
waste.
Transforming the dream of Yala into enviable reality requires Capacity, Empathy, and Competence. And as a Mother
who aspires to be the Chairperson of Yala LGA I possess the above qualities.
If it is about Capacity: My ascension as Double Crown Manager at Edmark within the shortest period of time,
demonstrates my commitment to capacity building.
If it is about Empathy: The formation of Oja-Ugu, one of the largest socio-political groups in Yala is borne out of altruism. We have ensured hundreds of children are back in school. Oja-Ugu has embarked on the constructions of
class-rooms, payment of school fees, providing start-up capitals for entrepreneurs, etc.
If it is about Competence: My work as the Senior Special Adviser to the Governor on Mobilization and Enlightenment played a crucial role in dispelling falsehood and disseminating factual information. My role in ensuring Peace reigns supreme is there for everyone to see.
Honestly, the path to the total economic recovery and prosperity of Yala is arduous and long. However, I want to
assure the good people of Yala that:
In Unison, we can chart a new course.
In Unison, we can actualize the Yala dream.
In Unison, we can harness our God-given potentials to the
admiration of all.
The agenda of my government under my leadership includes;
Proactive Governance
My government will be composed of proactive and pragmatic individuals based entirely on merit. Under my leadership,
effective strategies that ensure economic development will be enthroned.
Security
Under my leadership, the lingering communal clashes will be decisively dealt with, thus ensuring the security and
safety of lives and property in Yala.
Economy
Under my leadership, the public-private partnership will be prioritized which would create employment for thousands of unemployed youths. The massive vocational education system, pragmatic employment of our comparative advantage in areas of mechanized agriculture ,
Accessible feeder road to our farm and created small scale Agro processing factories that will add value to our farm products.
Ensuring quality healthcare is accessible to all. Under my leadership, Healthcare will be prioritized.
Environment:
The environment we live has great impact on our general health . My government shall embark on intensive educational programme the inculcate personal cleanliness, environmental sanitation in our people.
Conclusion
I am making this declaration today because of my undying love, and my vision for a prosperous Yala.
My brothers and sisters, this is a movement borne out of altruism and vision, a collective movement to right the
wrongs of yesterday by ensuring we elect a credible and responsible leader, whose interest aligns with the interest
of the people.
Ending this declaration, I would like to thank my Family, Mentors, and friends. My ever-supportive husband, thank you for pushing me to be the best version of Me. Thank you!. And to my lovely children , I am proud of you, and my lovely supporters you are the best.
The Great People of Yala, This is achievable, We Can Do It."
