One good thing that I appreciate most in Hon. Abdulwakil Sule’s team is the resourcefulness of the people in the team. Youth who are not lazy! Youth who were no longer spoon fed! Youth who are not hangers-on. Youth who have definite job, trade, vocation or ventures that they survived on outside politics. And Elders who guide against volatility, recklessness and above all watch over the conducts of the team.
Dear Wakilites, let’s continue to make a difference by taking windows of opportunities in entrepreneurship, skills and vocations and MSMEs funds to become meaningfully engaged so as to be strong, bold and responsible in the service.
Do you know that Hon. Wakil started as a teacher, a performing entrepreneur and has made a good account of himself in his immediate political engagement.
When we ushered him to office as SSA Security to the Governor in Yagba East, he made a patriotic statement that he was not here to share money to individuals but he will use the office to touch some areas of pressing needs which he did. He was barely two weeks in office when the security challenges we never witnessed in history began to surface, but this young, resourceful and charismatic administrator was able to manage them calmly, got every security nerve comported.
Sooner he started building bridges around the human spaces that were neglected in the immediate past. He won the confidence of party men and women and even non partisan opinion moulders who have started working for the common interest of the entire area.
He has personally pursued several empowerment opportunities for the youth and had equally drawn up many blue prints to launch capacity building program for the vulnerable. I had seen him on many occasions taking applicants and needees directly to access opportunities they were seeking to become better off.
His engagements on social media were not for jamborees or praise singing but sharing information and statistics that helped social media users in several ways. He is humility personified but very principle on matters he’s so convinced but based on moral and ethical values.
Hon. Wakil will simply calm you down whenever he’s approached with anxiety and will readily wave off any sign of fear or threat because he believes in God the supreme decision maker.
To his party structure, he promised he will use his goodwill to see to their welfare and ensure that he’s always guided by the party rules upholding the party supremacy. He did exactly that. Today, the party in terms of human capacity and physical structure has witnessed tremendous improvement from what he met.
In deed, Hon. Wakil Sule is a stabilizer, a mover, a grassrooter and above all a bridge builder. His family antecedent is a pointer to the fact that as a child of a professional educationists and a seasoned administrator Hon. Wakil Sule would further make us proud if given the opportunity to captain the ship as a democratically elected Chairman of Yagba East LGA having been prepared through the tutelage of his father, the longest public secondary school principal in Northern Nigeria who doubled as the National Vice President of NUT, and his mother having served as Director of Personnel Management (DPM) and reached the peak of her career as Director of Local Government DLG before she happily retired.
I hope to see you continue on your success story as the future is so bright for you and other responsible, respective and highly resourceful youth perceived as children of nobody out there.
However sir, I want to charge you to be more proactive in pursuing your political ambition.
Taking from the words of the great Philosopher, Plato; “One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferior.”
On a final note, having reconsidered the charge by His Excellency on the day you were appointed alongside your other twenty colleagues, that your assignment is a litmus test for you. I have come to a conclusion that your political litmus paper has turned red to blue in Yagba East and your effort yielded a result that guaranteed everyone to be free to test his capacity without threat or dominant tendency anywhere.
