In an open letter addressed to the people of Aniocha\/Oshimili Federal Constituency of Delta State, House of Representatives aspirant, Tessy Ngozi Okeze has made a personal appeal for trust, unity, and a break from \u201cpolitics as usual\u201d ahead of the next general elections.<\/p>\n
Okeze, who is now running for the house of representatives under the African Action Congress, AAC, introduced herself not only as a candidate but as \u201cyour daughter, your sister, and one who understands the struggles, hopes, and dreams of our people.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cI have walked the same roads, felt the same challenges, and shared in the same prayers for a better future,\u201d she wrote in her Facebook post.<\/p>\n
The letter paints a picture of a constituency grappling with unemployment, poor infrastructure, and unfulfilled promises. Okeze said youths are \u201csearching for opportunities,\u201d women are \u201cstriving for empowerment,\u201d while elders \u201cdeserve better care, dignity, and respect.\u201d She added that roads, schools, and public systems \u201cneed real attention and not promises that fade after elections.\u201d<\/p>\n
That reality, she said, is why she has stepped forward to seeing for their votes this time.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not here for politics as usual. I am here because I believe that Aniocha\/Oshimili deserves better representation, leadership that listens, leadership that acts, and leadership that puts the people first,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n
Okeze outlined four key pillars of her campaign: youth empowerment through skills, jobs, and opportunities; support for women to grow businesses and achieve independence; improved education, healthcare, and infrastructure; and transparent, accountable leadership that constituents can trust.<\/p>\n
She emphasized that the movement is collective, not individual. \u201cThis journey is not mine, it is ours. I need your voice. I need your belief. I need your support,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Her vision, she explained, is a constituency where \u201cevery child has hope, every youth has opportunity, and every family can live with dignity.\u201d She urged residents to rise above division and choose \u201cprogress over stagnation\u201d and \u201csincerity over empty promises.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI humbly ask for your support and your prayers,\u201d she concluded, signing off as \u201cYour daughter. Your sister. Your voice.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Aniocha\/Oshimili Federal Constituency, covering communities across Delta State, has long been a focal point in Delta politics, with voters often citing poor road networks, youth unemployment, and inadequate healthcare as pressing concerns.<\/p>\n
Okeze\u2019s message appears aimed at tapping into that frustration while positioning herself as a relatable alternative rooted in shared experience rather than political establishment ties.<\/p>\n
Whether the call for a \u201cnew direction\u201d will resonate with voters remains to be seen. But for now, Tessy Ngozi Okeze has made one thing clear: she\u2019s running as one of them, not above them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
