WHAT A STEWART EFE LEADERSHIP MEANS FOR EGOR LOCAL GOVERNMENT COUNCIL.
Below are some of the reasons we could gather from residents of Egor Local Government Council of Edo State, on why they are advocating for Honorable Stewart Efe to run for the post of the Chairman of the local government council:
1) EGOR RETURNS LOCAL GOVERNMENT TO THE GRASSROOTS WHERE IT BELONGS
Before being called upon to serve as a commissioner in the first term of Governor Godwin Obaseki the executive governor of Edo State, Honorable Stewart Efe has been at the fore-front of community advocacy, youth leadership and other grassroots development initiatives in Egor Local Government Council of Edo State and beyond. He has advocated tirelessly for equal opportunity for all and the need to end all forms of inequity and injustice that deprives those raised in less fortunate circumstances of access to opportunities to maximize their potential. Victory for him is victory for the common man in Egor.
2) SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THE PLIGHTS OF THE PEOPLE TAKES CHARGE
It is always difficult for local government leaders who are not in tune with the realities at the local government level to be able to succeed at leadership at that grassroots level. There is always that problem of disconnect from reality. But Hon. Stewart Efe understands the “hustle” in the street because he started from scratch in that same community, and he has seen it all. He knows where the pain aches. Having him there as the leader of the council will be a great motivation to the people at the grassroots.
3) SOMEONE WHO CAN BUILD POLITICAL BRIDGES RECEIVES THE MANTLE OF LEADERSHIP
It was gathered that Hon. Stewart Efe’s acceptability cuts across the two major political parties. And given the recent political revolution in Edo State that led to the victory of Governor Godwin Obaseki against all odds, through a bipartisanship support, unifying factors like Hon. Stewart Efe are needed to help build a modern, new and more effective political foundation for Edo state, beginning at the grassroots. Every good thing that lasts begins with a strong foundation at the grassroots.
4) SOMEONE WHO CAN KEEP THE STREETS CLEAN AND RESTORE PEACE TAKES CHARGE
It is worthy of note that when chaos almost took over every part of Edo State and Nigeria in the wake of the #EndSars protests that was hijacked by hoodlums, and the aftermaths, Honorable Stewart’s ability to get the audience of the boys in the street, and get them to listen and refrain from all forms of lawlessness helped to save lives and properties in Egor and beyond. This was possible simply because they know him as an elder who has always been like a father to them. So they listened to him. He comes down to their level to reason with them. And they listen, irrespective of political differences.
