GOVERNORSHIP POLL: ‘EKITI AMBASSADORS’ LAUNCH NEW GROUP, ‘LIBERATING EKITI’
A social-political organization committed to the progress of Ekiti State, ‘The Ambassadors’ has announced the birth of a new group tagged “Liberating Ekiti”.
It is designed to be a people-powered movement for transformative change in Ekiti State.
According to a statement signed by the Secretary of the group, Olamide Damilola, “following the disqualification of Engr. Kayode Ojo (EKO), Ekiti Ambassadors has taken a decisive step to mobilize citizens towards a brighter future. We, the people of Ekiti, demand a break from the past and a future where our state’s immense potential is unlocked for the benefit of all”.
The Challenges We Face
– *Underdevelopment*: Inadequate infrastructure (roads, healthcare, education) hampers progress.
– *Economic Stagnation*: Limited jobs and entrepreneurship support impact livelihoods.
– *Political Intimidation*: Incumbent’s misuse of power suppresses democratic voices.
Why Ekiti Deserves Better
– *Harnessing Resources*: Ekiti’s human and natural wealth can drive growth.
– *Empowering Citizens*: Focus on youth, women, and vulnerable groups for inclusive development.
– *Restoring Democracy*: Citizen engagement to counter political intimidation.
Our Approach
Ekiti Ambassadors seeks a home-grown, experienced leader to champion this cause. Our pillars:
– *Economic Revitalization*: Jobs, entrepreneurship, local industry growth.
– *Social Progress*: Better education, healthcare, social welfare.
– *Good Governance*: Transparency, accountability, citizen participation.
Liberating Ekiti Movement
– *People-Powered*: Supported and sponsored by Ekiti citizens.
– *Healthy Campaign*: Focus on issues, not intimidation.
– *Inclusive Leadership*: Reflecting Ekiti’s diversity and aspirations.
The group has therefore invited all Ekiti citizens to join the movement for renewal and empowerment.
