Amina Mohammed, Lafia.
Ahead of the 2023 general elections the Senatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), representing Nasarawa North, Barr. Danladi Halilu-Envuluanza, has pledged quality representation, if elected as the Senator of the zone.
Halilu-Envuluanza, a one-time Secretary of the National Judicial Council (NJC), will commence his tour round the electoral units of Wakama Electoral Ward of Nassarawa-Eggon Local Government Area (LGA) to canvass for support from the electorates.
The Senatorial candidate pledged to sponsor quality bills that would be of great benefit to the people and attract federal government presence to the zone.
“Nasarawa North currently has little or no federal government presence.
“I will change the narrative, if elected in 2023,” said the Senatorial candidate.
He listed some of the challenges facing different communities in the zone to include poverty, bad roads, absence of healthcare services in some rural communities, lack of employment for the youths and women, and lack of infrastructures such as electricity,
among others.
“Helping people irrespective of whether I know them or not has been part of my life, even when I was still in active service.
“I have facilitated the employment of so many people, paid for registration with the Nigerian Law School for many, and settled medical bills of a lot of people I had never met before.
“I have helped people when I was still in active service, when I never had plans to contest the election. So, it is part of me to assist those that need my help.
“I am still helping people and will never stop as long as God keeps me alive and gives me the resources,” he added.
He promised to provide an industrial borehole to the Awogenshe community of Wakama to address the problem of water in the area.
He, therefore, appealed to the people of the area to vote for Bola Tinubu, the Presidential candidate of the party, the state Governor Abdullahi Sule who seeking a re-election, and all other candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2023.
Also, the APC House of Representatives’ candidate for Akwanga/Nassarawa-Eggon/Wamba Federal Constituency, Mr. Jeremiah Umaru, applauded the people for their massive turnout during the unit round.
The House of Representatives candidate promised to give priority to the empowerment of women and youths of the constituency, if elected in 2023.
“When the youths and women are empowered and engaged, it would go a long way to curb restiveness and idleness in the area,” said Umaru.
The campaign team which had Mr. Jacob Kudu, who is aspiring to the House of Assembly as a candidate representing the Eggon East constituency, also had the APC stakeholders from Wakama Electoral Ward and Nassarawa-Eggon Local Government Area.
The campaign team visited the palaces of
various traditional rulers, chiefs and the district head of Wakama for royal blessings.
It held meetings with electorates at different polling units of the electoral ward and also commissioned party offices and campaign billboards.
