[dropcap]D[/dropcap]elta State House of Assembly aspirant for the Oshimili North Constituency on the platform of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM),Sir (Dr)Felix Chuks Okonji(OMELORA) says his aspiration is the best option for his constituents as the touchstone of his candidacy is competence, capacity, and experience underpinned by a strong demand for justice, equity and fairness.
In a statement he personally signed to mark his consultation and flag-off to leaders and good people of oshimili north , the foremost philanthropist, an entrepreneur, Real Estate Mogul, said, he is seeking the votes of his people to be the next state House of Assembly member because he has the capacity, competence, commitment, experience, exposure as well as deep knowledge of the expectations and the needs of his people.
Omelora said, “I am not seeking an office or a position but I am seeking for an opportunity for service. My aspiration will avail you two packages in one: a golden opportunity to serve my people and to correct a negative history of alienating the great people of Oshimili North state Constituency from serving as your representative in the state House of Assembly since our country’s independence in 1960; and a competent, experienced, selfless, responsible, well-rounded, prepared, determined, passionate, accessible, knowledgeable and loyal legislator, who will demonstrate equity and mutual fidelity to the course of the entire district without discrimination”.
He noted with delight that the Oshimili North Constituency is blessed with enormous manpower, rich arable land and other natural resources, which require proper harnessing through credible leadership and proactive representation.
“We have great hardworking people who seek opportunities to thrive and excel. I am offering myself as a vessel to fulfil these needs, using the State House of Assembly as a staging post. My mantra is an opportunity for all. Not some,” he vowed.
“I will, in conjunction with the state Government and other development agencies within and outside Nigeria, pursue the growth, prosperity, development, happiness and well-being of our people, including those who will not support or vote for me”.
He promised to synergize with relevant state government agencies, and development partners to turn around the fortunes of his constituents and run an all-inclusive government.
He warned that the stakes beyond 2023 in Nigeria are too high to be left in the hands of unstable politicians as too many unresolved national questions are still open to necessary debate and resolution in our quest for national rebirth, growth and integration.
