Social Democratic Party (SDP) senatorial candidate for Kwara South, Prof Wale Sulaiman said he has the expertise to attract jobs, workable healthcare and education to the district.
He vowed to change the face of development in the senatorial district by ensuring paradigm shift from over 30 years of bad representation.
Sulaiman made the commitment at Ajase- Ipo Day 2022 in Irepodun local government area of the state.
He decried large- scale under development of Kwara South traceable to” bad representation, poor leadership recruitment, people – fearing rather than God- fearing representation, dominant self- centred agenda and absolute lack of vision”.
He stressed that, “My people are tired of representation that had failed to demonstrate what they are doing for our people to create jobs, provide good health, infrastructure and functional free education” adding that: “I have the expertise to attract jobs, workable healthcare, education and alleviate poverty which has become endemic in Kwara South”
He expressed his belief in the Electoral Act, true federalism, decentralization of policing, engagement of traditional rulers in the security architecture of the country.
“I am absolutely an advocate of good governance through legal instruments that will give power back to the people, where their votes would count in the choice of representatives,” he said.
Sulaiman also declared his support for the Central Bank of Nigeria fiscal initiative, noting that, “ CBN policy on the naira is Nigerian- centric.
add value to our currency, make us to be more productive than consuming” .
He advised CBN to “implement the fiscal policy with due consideration of people in rural communities.”
The traditional ruler of Ajase- Ipo, Oba Ismail Bolaji Alebiosu who administered the award on Sulaiman, described him as “a worthy ambassador, an embodiment of honesty and icon of selfless service to humanity”.
