There are a lot of elections coming up and a lot of leaders out there asking for your support. In some situations, every single vote will make a difference as candidates put forward vastly different platforms and look for you to be on their side.
It’s the sides that trouble me because politics is often presented as a conversation between winners and losers, those who are for and those who are against a particular issue. No one wins in the long run when we are so divided that we leave half of us behind.
More than ever we need leaders willing to cross lines, close the divide, and bring people together to solve the challenges we face. We’ve got some big challenges, and its going to take a leader with the ability to collaborate, inspire and have some tough conversations so we can move forward.
Democracy is not a sporting spectator.
Your choices have long-term impacts on government policy, budget allocations and the community that gets created in the future. Choosing carefully matters, Using your voice to take action in support of a candidate you believe in to canvas, fundraise and speak to neighbours and friends contributes to the quality of the democracy we live in, and the quality of the candidates we get to vote for.
The system we’ve got isn’t perfect. In fact, it could be dramatically improved upon. However at the moment it’s the system we’ve got and it is far more open and connected to the views of citizens than many other systems.
I have a foundational belief that brave, honest conversations are how we solve the problems in our DEAR YAGBA and that YAGBA as our heritage needs a new kind of leader who stands for something, shows up and changes our world for the better. You want to vote for someone who stands for something you also believe in and who will work with others to create positive change. This person you want to vote to represent YAGBA in the Nigeria Federal House of Representatives is Engineer Folorunsho Olafemi.
Elections up and down the ballot present voters with important choices. Whether it is a local race that will affect your community or a national race that could change the direction of the country, elections are a time to consider the issues that you care about and decide which candidate you support.
In YAGBA today we as people crave
Total security
Student loans
Agriculture revolution
Infrastructure
Social amenities and development.
Outside political office Engineer Folorunsho Olafemi over the years have been in forefront of all this across wards and local government in YAGBA LAND. We appeal to our Leaders, delegates and everyone to for the first time get it things right for our dear YAGBA.
