American Judge Joins Ondo Governorship Race by suasmablow(m): 6:17pm On Jun 01, 2016 |
A Nigerian-born United States of American
judge, Mr. Dele Alade, has declared his
intention to contest the forthcoming Ondo
State governorship election under the platform
of the All Progressives Congress.
Alade declared that he joined the race not as a
neophyte, but as one who has the key to turn
around the economic situation of the state.
The American judge, who spoke with our
correspondent in Akure, the Ondo State on
Wednesday about his ambition to contest the
November 2016 election in the state, said his
desire was to help the younger ones in the
state develop and enjoy a bright future.
He noted that the present Peoples Democratic
Party’s administration in the state had failed
the people, stressing that the APC had what it
takes to take the state to the next level.
The New York-based judge said as a legal
practioner, he also participated in the Nigerian
politics through his membership of different
political associations in the USA which included
the Alliance for Democracy where he was a
national secretary in the United States.
He said, “This is a mission to rescue the
masses out of poverty, though it is not an easy
task but this is a mission to rescue the masses
from the corrupt leaders. Attention will be
specifically focused on youth empowerment,
and the state will be repositioned as the
number one cocoa producer in the country and
the world.”
He promised to run an all-inclusive
government saying, “I pledge to govern with
the fear of God which shall enable me entrench
the core values of equity, fairness,
transparency, honesty, accountability,
selflessness, forgiveness, reconciliation, peace
and unity while running an all-inclusive
administration.” Source: www.punchng.com/62415-2/ 1 Like
