I believe the Legislature is the bedrock of democracy and provides an untapped opportunity to make a positive difference through people-centric legislation and effective oversight of the executive arm of government which will engender the rule of law, prosperity, equity, justice, progress, peace and true national unity.
But the enterprising, vibrant, intelligent, resourceful and good-natured people of Kogi Central Senatorial District (who are Ebiras) have not been well represented in the Senate since 1999. This is unfair and a disservice to my people.
Consequently, by God’s Grace, I am presenting myself once again to my people in Kogi Central Senatorial District for election into the Senate in 2019.
My campaign will be based on issues with emphasis on economic development, empowerment of the people through education and economic opportunities, accountability and integrity in governance (zero-tolerance for corruption).
We need a New Way of politics in Kogi Central Senatorial District and Nigeria. Sitting in the shadows and lamenting from the flanks will not bring the change we all yearn for. Most people worry about people they perceive as “good” going into politics because of the lure of money. And, indeed, many have fallen and joined the plunderers of our nation.
By God’s Grace, I overcame the Money Trap a very long time ago. Money does not motivate me. It is merely a tool for good. Riches have no hold on me. This for me is about service; selfless service unto God and the people of Ebiraland. And there is Grace for this race. It will be well with Ebiraland.
Ebira-OpeteVetenyi!
– Alhaji Dalhatu Sheriff
Senate Aspirant, Kogi Central.
