A change is needed at the state level and the national level too. We have a responsibility to effect change. That responsibility is giving to you by the constitution of this party that you need to choose somebody that will bring the change. It must be somebody by my own description, that fits in into the leadership role that is needed.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Such person must be somebody of character, Such person to lead he said must be somebody of character, somebody who possesses certain leadership qualities.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;He must be somebody of good character, one who has the capacity to lead, one who is committed, one who has courage and also has contributed to the educational being of people in the society.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;So if the person that is given that role to lead possesses those qualities, l am sure he will be accepted by the electorate.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Mr. Chairman that is the critical noble reason\u00a0 that l have come to make a case for myself.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;I do believe Mr. Chairman and other party leaders that have the responsibility to bring out a person with those qualities that l, Haruna Saheed make bold to say that there is the need for the party to look directly and make Haruna Saheed fit into that cap.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">He said aside being of good character, he has the capacity, sound education, and has the skill and knowledge of the environment where he needs to operate. According to him, he has displayed his skills in different aspect of life.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0&#8220;I am the longest serving accountant General in Kaduna state. I served for the period of 11years.\u00a0 Before that, I was the general manager, investment, l was a banker just to mention a few. I know this state more than anybody including, l am sorry, the party Chairman. I know every part of this state from ward to even up to the polling units. My political career span over 20years<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">I contested for governorship in 2011 which afforded me experience and opportunity to meet people.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">As for contributions, &#8220;I have done a lot in my village and elsewhere. I ensured that l built a complete secondary school. That is my contribution and commitment to education. I built Islamic school, l built mosque, l contributed in the construction of churches. l have also done something which is very important to be heard of. You all know the crisis which erupted in Kajuru especially in 2015, l was the sole and single person that ensured that it became a thing of the past.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;I held over 36 meetings to reconcile people to\u00a0 ensure that they don&#8217;t fight again. I ensured that peace was instaled. In my life as a civil servant, l have never asked anything for myself but ask for my people. I brought developmental value to my people.\u00a0 Bringing government closer to the people. My commitment is unwavering in politics, to the development of the people, to the development of the economy.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;When we talk of courage, my leaders\u00a0 can attest to that. Mr. Chairman, with these few remarks, allow me to make the declaration that l, Haruna Yinusa Saheed cautious of the fact that there are so many challenges that we need to overcome in other to win the Governorship election in Kaduna state and cautious of the fact that we need in that office somebody with all the leadership qualities mentioned and cautious of the fact that the great party l belong to is that of bringing change, l do solemnly present myself before PDP to give me the mandate to lead in this race.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;I believe if you will be guided by the things you need to follow in the selection,\u00a0 you will come to the conclusion that l am the right person for the choice of Kaduna state.&#8221; He said.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The Chairman of the Peoples\u2019 Democratic Party in Kaduna, Felix Hassan Hyet, welcoming him back to the party said, leaving the party and coming back is a kind of experience gathering.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;So welcome back from your journey. As your DG has said, you only went out to see things and came back. For the fact that you have gone somewhere and you&#8217;re back, you have come back with experience. Therefore we appreciate you for that.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Power he said comes from God as he wished him well in the race. He urged members to go into the nooks and crannies of Kaduna to convince the over 3,000 delegates PDP\u00a0 has to be able to wrestle power from the ruling party.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">According to him, &#8220;May l stand by the authority of the party that we are going to provide a level play ground for everybody. We are not going to be intimidated by either your former position, we are not going to be intimidated by your resources, but we are going to be intimidated by the love of the people for a candidate.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kaduna Guber Race: I Am the\u00a0 Best\u00a0 Candidate that Fits the Cap &#8211;
