Honesty is the channel of truth between
the soul and the mind. Those who nurture it are imbued with enormous power: the
power to see, the power to know, the power to differentiate, the power to
reflect, the power to choose, the power to speak the truth, and ultimately the
power to grow. Dishonesty is never the way to authentic power. Dishonesty leads
to less real power.
For Delta State to take its rightful
place and be more relevant in today’s world, it needs bold, inspiring and
visionary leadership, devoid of cronyism, and Senator Okowa is the key to such
leadership. Senator Arthur Ifeanyi Okowa stands for honest, trustworthy,
scrupulous, conscientious, high-principled, Selfless, contentment, honourable,
upright, upstanding, high-minded, righteous, right-minded, moral, ethical, virtuous,
just, noble, respectable, decent and all above prudent.
With Senator Okowa, Delta State will
have chosen a leader who is not perfidious, and who will place people over his
personal needs. In this world, to be competitive in all aspects, it demands
radical socio-economic transformation and Senator Okowa with knowledge gathered
in this field will usher in the economic change.
Delta State needs a leader that has a
vision for the State; one that can inspire the people, and one that can be bold
to fight mismanagement of the State’s resources, cronyism and recklessness in
governance. This State cannot go on doing things as usual. We must elect people
who have a passion and commitment for rapid development, including the
well-being of the people and delivery of this kind of government is Senator
Okowa’s vision.
Senator Okowa’s Government will be
confident, assertive, and innovative and committed to promoting and defending
the interest of the people first.
We may have the oil and other natural
resources, but he will place more emphasis on developing the human resource of
the State, instead of just focusing on the natural resources. Senator Okowa considers
the people’s interest and development must be placed above our politics and
natural resources.
Above all, Senator Okowa is prepared to
seek solutions from within, and adopt the philosophies and practices that will
deal with the various challenges that the State face, and develop ideas to
propel our State towards the best that it deserves, and not just the better.’ Senator
Ifeanyi Okowa will operate an open government that has integrity in its actions
and is really good at managing its information.
These are the foundations upon which
government accountability is built and corruption is reduced. Now just to be
clear, integrity in Senator Okowa’s context means that an open government
follows the rule of law and that it works to establish a culture of integrity
amongst its representatives and employees.
This integrity pervades all aspects of
an open government which reduces corruption and creates internal accountability,
where government holds itself accountable. Senator Okowa will ensure the habit
of Information management is enabled so that the information that government
collects and creates is available to all. With no information management – or
even poor information management, the road stops here with no accountability
and very little reduction in corruption.
As a man of high prudence, the strength of
mind or spirit enables a man to encounter challenges with firmness, personal
bravery and heroism is not the strength of the muscles and bones. Being
intelligent is the strongest strength or energy needed in winning any battle of
life, a good boxer wins with technicalities not with strength, so most star
studded teams can always lose their matches if they don’t have good bench to
dole out the expertise that will bring goals.
Senator Okowa is the man with that brain
strength which will turn around the fortunes of Delta State for the better. He is
a trusted hand, and trust is the foundation of sustainable development. As the
world continues to get smaller, our mutual interdependence increases and we all
need to be able to mobilize the resources and goodwill from revenues to achieve
success. That can only be achieved through gaining the trust of the people.
Therefore, the ability to gain the trust of the masses and of all is becoming
the key to success.
