By David Odama
Former Director-General of the National Orientation Agency (NOA), Dr.
Speaking at a meeting with a grassroots support group under the auspices of Keana Ambassadors in Lafia, the former NOA DG, who is the senatorial candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said his leadership approach would be futuristic, with everyone addressing present challenges while preparing for the future with great hope and optimism.
Dr. Omeri, whose campaign is anchored on performance and quality service delivery, maintained that his approach would focus on empowering minds and driving a socially complementary economic agenda to ensure that no one is left behind across multiple sectors.
“This can be achieved by fostering a culture of entrepreneurship and innovation, providing support for start-ups and businesses to encourage inclusion for self-preservation.”
“Over the years, the population has become beggarly in a situation where the ladder of poverty keeps growing higher by eliminating the middle class and suffocating the masses. Our mantra and campaign direction shall focus mainly on organising, uniting, transforming and building communities in real terms,” he restated.
“Nasarawa South shall reclaim our leadership of purpose and direction, of wealth creation and education. We shall be our brothers’ keepers in all ramifications and in all forms within human capability, rooted in God Almighty and with the fear of His wrath,” Omeri reiterated.
The meeting also provided an opportunity for Omeri to highlight his achievements, which include providing jobs for over 350 persons, establishing the Nasarawa Broadcasting Service, influencing the construction of the Abacha Youth Centre, influencing the purchase of Abdullahi Adamu Estate, launching the iconic On The Move, and building the Nasarawa Estate, among others.
In his remarks, the Chairman of Keana Ambassadors, who was represented by Yakubu Idris Adam, expressed the group’s appreciation to Dr. Omeri for hosting them and assured him of its unalloyed support and mobilisation ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Idris Adam further called for collective support for Omeri’s candidacy ahead of the 2027 elections.
