While lazy men look for excuses to give for their failures, smart ones look for reasons why they should not fail.
Second term and ranking has nothing to do with quality legislation and return of democratic dividends to our people. Rather, it is a cunning political deception to take another advantage of our people.
Go to the creeks in Niger Delta or the far desert north and mention Sen Dino Melaye, they know him. Not because he from there or a ranked second timer in the senate but because he has made his voice hard and have returned dividends to his people as their representative.
Bukola Saraki is the senate president today not because he is a ranked second timer but because he knows his onions and his navigational paths.
From these two examples above, it is obvious and transparent that even if you returned non performing members to the house a thousand times, they will remained abysmally the same and we shall be singing the same song year in, year out.
The best we need in term of representation to turn around our eastern senatorial stories are men that are equipped with a historical and recent knowledge of national politics. Men whose sound academic backgrounds are not in question. Intellectual commanders of the queen’s language. Men that are constantly available and readily mixed with the grassroots.
People with backgrounds and foundations. Not people who does politics for a living.
Above qualities of the legislator we need are what abounds in Dr Victor Alewo Adoji. A retired banker with an implacable banking records. His operational vantage position while in the bank is the bedrock of his first hand knowledge of our national politics. A certificated economist that booked his way to an academic doctorate. Linguistical endowment, the queen would listen to him when it comes to eloquent and coherent presentation. Same is his composition, boldness and convicting skill. A lobbyist to the core.
All these wonderful qualities of Dr Victor Alewo Adoji mentioned above, has never kept him away from the grassroots. He is always around and available for everybody.
All he needs from you for this positive turn around is your vote. If you vote and vote, the deal is done and we are safe.
While some are banking on the power of incumbency and the others are waiting to ride on back of party victory, Victor has made himself available to sign a social contract with you. Give him your votes and he will return to you the dividends that are your rights. God bless you as you think and decide wisely for the future of this kingdom and tomorrow of our yet unborn generation.
Thank you.
