Usman Okai Austin CNA is a man who does not ride on magic strokes of luck but steady metamorphosis into a nationalist and household name in Kogi politics. He is a grassroot politician.
A man who understands in details the political terrain of his place. A man who understands the plight of his people via experience. This is a man who understands what it means to be underrepresented.
Like the biblical Paul’s missionary journeys, he has traversed all corners of his constituency at their doorposts with the message of the need for an inclusive representation. He has touched almost all the nooks and crannies of Dekina and Bassa preaching the sermon of genuine cause of liberation and rebirth.
His consistency, unwavering commitment to good governance, human empathy and feelings has beyond all doubts given us a clear direction of where we are headed.
He is calling every Tom, Dick and Harry to come on board and we row this boat together for smooth sailing and safe landing.
With Usman Okai Austin as our mantle bearer, this is a clarion call for every well meaning Dekina-Bassaites to throw their weight behind this messenger of hope.
He is not the type of politician doing the bidding of some coded men calling the shots from behind the cuttings. Baring all odds, he is a man that emerged on solitary efforts and his philosophy has endeared him to manyHe is a man with presence that can stand shoulder high in the green chamber.
He is a man that has the ‘will’ power to shape the agenda and narrative of leadership in our constituency with careful reworking albeit astute craftsmanship.
Usman Okai Austin has the capacity and character to be vested with this task.
