I have been silently engaged in community development starting from Egbengwu, Nimo. I built a modern toilet for Egbengwu primary school pupils and St Mary’s Catholic Church Egbengwu, I have built houses for less privileged in Ebanano, Egbengwu Nimo. I have given scholarship to students.

As a man of impeccable character, those who I have been privileged to work with or those who are privileged to work with me could attest to my transparent, dynamic and people oriented leadership qualities. As a leader who talks less, I have my words as my bonds. I never renege on promises. Having said this, I make bold to categorically state that I should be held responsible for any promise I make.

Having transverse, the length and breadth of Nimo and after in-depth deliberations with the good people of this union, I have identified areas of our needs and also pledge to address issues that bear direct relevance to the union and our people at large.

We have come a long way as a people of common destiny. Our people are suffering; we need a change; a change that will guarantee freedom, love, peace, unity and progress. A change that will make our union and community an envy of all. Now is the time; we have seen before us our Eldorado. By God’s grace, we shall get there.

I have Set my agenda to take care, among others, the following sectors:

Accessibility to Information is the key for a progressive union. Information promotes understanding and unity. Lack of information on the procedures of governance creates room for agitation and noncompliance to the rule of law. The situation Nimo finds itself today is largely contributed to lack of access to information. The leadership must at all-time communicate its vision, plans and working to the masses and be ready to provide accurate data. Publications will be done regularly to carry everyone along and to be on the same page.

Education is key to human development. No community can afford to toy with this very important sector. It is sad to note that education which hitherto was regarded as our industry is no longer given its pride of place. Under my administration, I shall ensure that all our primary and secondary schools are well funded through private individuals to meet the yearnings and aspirations of those in the sector. The world is now digitized, to this end, Information and Communication Technology (ICTS) centers shall be established in our schools. My administration shall organize education summit to tap from experts on the way forward in our educational sector. While brilliant but indigent pupils shall receive regular support from this union.

We will build a library and this will serve as our archives where facts about Nimo will be kept for easy documentation and research purposes.

This shall be paramount in the minds of our administration. All these issues of mkpulu mmili will be curtailed if I become the President of this great union (NTDU) National. Communities now fight to retain the sanity in their community as most of our youth do indulge themselves in taking high capacity drugs abusively because of lack of employment.

Some community have gone to the extent of taking excessive punitive measures on the distributors of this hard drugs but I tell you if our youth are dutifully engaged, they won’t have time for hard drugs because an idle man is the devil’s workshop. So during my administration I pledge to provide employment to the people of our great community through the help of government and private individuals. Once our youth are gainfully engaged, it will reduce crime and lessen the burden of Insecurity.

My administration in all ramifications shall be people oriented. To this end, with the limited resources that accrue to the union, I shall ensure that there will be provision of social amenities to better the lots of the rural populace.

There shall be massive opening up and renovation of feeder roads to link the rural areas to the urban centers like cooperative road will be reopened.

This is to ensure an easy transportation of farm products from the villages to the cities around. So many roads projects will be aggressively embarked upon by my administration while individuals and private organizations wishing to collaborate with the council will be encouraged especially in the area of procuring buses to ply the rural areas.

There are so many dilapidated roads across the community. I will engage the local government chairman to empower the local works department to rehabilitate such dilapidated road while new ones shall be constructed. There shall be massive maintenance of our roads that have been badly damaged by erosion. Water project such as borehole shall be drilled in some remote villages.

Provision of electricity and meter is another area that will attract the attention of my administration. While there will be conscious efforts at maintaining existing infrastructures, I shall use my office to attract transformers from the state government for onward distribution to villages that need them. This is a veritable means of discouraging rural-urban drift.

Renovation of our existing market (Oye) shall be vigorously pursued while new and viable ones shall be established to boost the economy of the market men and women and also the community.

The lingering issue of land dispute in Nimo will be reviewed. On the issue of Ana Owa, Ndi Nimo will be allowed to take final verdict on what should be done with it.

All Nimo land boundaries will be reviewed for proper documentation and accountability.

We are brothers and should allow peace reign in Nimo.

All this I set to achieve if I become the President General of Nimo Town Development Union (NTDU).

God together with the support of Ndi Nimo, I know I will deliver.
