He said he will engage with stakeholders with a view to building consensus, and advancing policies that will drive sustainable development across communities, reaffirming his resolve to continue delivering purposeful and people-centred representation for the district.
He emphasized that “meaningful representation must be built on broad engagement, mutual trust, and deliberate consensus-building among critical stakeholders,” noting that “sustainable growth can only emerge where leadership remains attentive to the aspirations, challenges, and hopes of the people.”
According to him, the task ahead is one of collective resolve, strategic partnership, and a shared vision for greater prosperity.
