From Noah Ocheni, Lokoja
An aspirant to the House of Representatives on the platform of the All Progressives Congress APC from Lokoja/Kogi Federal Constituency, Alhaji Danladi Suleiman Aguye, on Tuesday in Lokoja promised to boost the security architectures to cub criminality in his domain.
Aguye made the promise while speaking with Journalists at the 2023 first edition of Media Parley organised by the Kogi state council of the Nigeria Union Journalists (NUJ) held at the council press centre, Lokoja.
The aspirant who commended the local government council chairmen in his Constituency for doing much to check security challenges, further promised to boost such effort, if given the mandate.
He therefore assured the people of his Constituency of quality representation and free access to his office if he wins 2023 House of Representatives election.
The former Special Adviser to Kogi state governor on job creation and youth development, said improvement in the life of the youth would be given priority attention.
He disclosed that he paid the JAMB fees for 400 students, to ease their financial burden and make sure they realise their educational ambition, adding that if given the mandate he would do more for that segment of the population in his Constituency.
Earlier in his speech, the Chairman of NUJ in the state, Alhaji Adeiza Momohjimoh, described the occasion as the constitutional responsibility entrusted on Journalists to ask aspirants on what their Constituents stand to gain by voting them into office.
He added that it is also a process through which the electorate would put their elected representatives to task, if they failed in fulfilling their promises.
Adeiza urged members to give the occasion the desired publicity to encourage other aspirants to come further and tell their constituents their mission and vision in seeking for votes.
The Chairman, Planning Committee of the Media Parley, Mr Jerry Ocheme, also advised Journalists to give much enthusiasm to the occasion, assuring them of more of such enterprising moment in the days ahead.
