The aspirant further called for support among the electorates and the people of Alimosho towards making his ambition a reality.

According to him, “I keep telling people that when their representatives make false promises you condemn them; but what are you doing to make sure that the activities of these people are put to end.

“I believe I have a stake in this community and the nation, i am an advocate of community and national development, and the best way to do that is to come out and test your popularity and contribute your quarter to uplifting the standard of living of the people.

“So, I believe I can do it, and make the needed positive change among my people. I have to get into the system. I urge support among the people of Alimosho as we go to the primary”.
