It is obvious even to the blind and loud to the deaf, that permutations for 2019 general elections is gradually taking a centre stage in the public space of discourse. Politicians have started a Widespread political consultations, alliances, repositioning, restrategizing, and mobilization are covertly ongoing.
Adamawa state Central senatorial zone is also a centre of attraction as politicians have started consultations,scheming out plans to outstand their political opponents. The dynamisms of the game is seem to take a new dimension as the name of Dr Halilu Hamma a grass root politician,a business tycoon with an international recognition, a Man that many call, regarded as a ”super sonic heroe eagle and a Son to the Land of beauty being discovered a Jewels in the savannah.
The discovery of Hamma is never far from the fact that his legendary life of modeling the lives of windows, orphans and the less privilege has turned him a spotted eagle soaring high to the altitude stage of leadership. A divine call that he answer to better work for the people that have entrust on him confidence and respect of a noble man. His fatherly character has translated to a huge Leadership feat that the zone cannot afford to Miss him again in the coming 2019 elections.
What is more interest about the vision of this man is the Agenda he set to realise for the Youths of Adamawa central senatorial district from 2019 and beyond,knowing well that they are key deciding factor in determining a vibrant economy. To him once the youths are empower the economy of any place will stand to get a pillar that will not be easy for anything or anybody to break.
Also, it is becoming evident that the youth have broken the barriers of low self-esteem,one of the possible reasons Halilu has been discovered by thousand of youths in the zone because he is a Youth driving Man with indefectible riped age to give his best at the national assembly. No wonder he took a bold steps, wearing the confidence of a lion to go and get what belongs to any good person of the zone.
He is known to be a friend to all people close or afar off to push away the politics of using and dumping the youth after elections have come to an end. The view of many youths suggest that Hamma will realize their dreams,as money without any previous visible impact on the people and track-record of achievement is a political liability.
The understandsing of political dynamism of Nigerian politics and Adamawa central senatorial district inclusive is changing from blind support base on ethnicity or religion to politics of personality whose character is masses inclined.
I borrow the words of a world renown motivational speaker, Dr Myles Monroe that politics of tribe, religion and ethnicity if permitted will be a cancer that will aid self-centered leaders to power,they will become richer when they get to power, while the owners of the mandate that got them to power become poorer,so does the cycle goes if there is no conscious efforts to break it.
Being a Man for the Masses Hamma as a servant who is willing to follow the bidding of the mandate givers (electorates) who can only be empowered through a good leader that will use the principles of politics, economics and better ideology. A visionary leader is change personify that will make the lives of people better than they were,this is the passion of this down to earth man of our time.
Going by the track-record of Hamma whose philanthropical life style is to create wealth for people and to live a life of service to the little or much he has gotten, not living a life of personal aggrandizement; accumulating wealth for inordinate ambition and sentiment-soaked Glory.
A call to all the people of central zone of Adamawa not to be impress by political office holders who do not have them at the center stage,Politicians whose agenda is not the people but their “stomach infrrastructure” and be careful to realise that Performance in office has nothing to do with ones wealth or name. But visionary leadership and total commitment to serve. Is God as a matter of duty discern those that are genuinely interested in serving the people from those that have natural tendencies to neglected them on voting into power.
The time has come and the time is now,the 7 LGAs of Southern to make a destiny changing decision, to once again reshape the ruined areas and deserted communities of the people of the area which were attacked by the activities of Boko Haram. It’s a wising up thought provoking moment to say yes to Dr Halilu Hamma for the next Senator of the Zone.
