Hi Dad
We thank late president Umaru Musa Yar'Adua for the amnesty programme that has restored peace in our native Niger Delta. And we praise President Goodluck Jonathan for sustaining the programme.There is now a coordinated and well-funded portfolio of gigantic development projects being executed across the region.
No matter who wins the presidential election this year, Niger Delta remains a top priority agenda of State. We can't dare otherwise. I'm excited.
Linking our area up with Lagos and opening up the coastal communities, including Delta and Ondo States, means that our native Isokoland and Ilajeland be in for a new lease of life! You and Mom should be excited, too.
But the most inviting for me is the human capital development component - i.e. training and retraining, skill acquisition, work experience through study tours and internships, tertiary education, etc. Tie this to resource support through microfinance, and you be my friend! I'm excited.
After the elections, I look forward to making my own contribution to this unfolding transformation. I'll give it my best short, I promise.
Yes, Dad, our Niger Delta is finally looking up! And I'm excited.
Your happy son
Dayo
