DR Udoh Oberaifo, the African Action Congress (AAC) Governorship Candidate for the Sept. 21 governorship election in Edo on Sunday unveiled Humanity First agenda for Edo people.

Shortly after officially unveiling his deputy, Lord Osunde who was a pioneer Edo Obidient Movement Leader to the general public in Benin, Oberaifo said he would dedicate his time if elected, to lifting Edo people out of poverty.

Oberaifo stated that his Humanity First Agenda meant that he would put Edo people first, especially the youth and women, before anything else if elected the governor of the state.

He disclosed that the agenda would be a platform to help millions of Edo people out of poverty by creating jobs through small and medium enterprises (SMEs), improved standard of living and provision of quality healthcare and education to the vulnerable.

“My candidature stands for true leadership, a new perspective, vibrancy and innovation.

“With all these we will provide good leadership and governance to all Edo residents and citizens.

“The first keyword of my agenda is Humanity First, which is putting Edo people first before politics, before power mongering, godfatherism and before personal gains.

“If you put people first in all you are doing, that means you will get it right.

“When you see the people, through the ‘eyes of God’, that is the way you want God to see them and you will definitely get it right.

” It is essential to put the people first by deliberately creating an enabling environment for businesses to thrive, ” he said.

According to him, the essence of the meeting is to officially unveil to the general public the party’s deputy governorship candidate, Lord Osunde, who before his defection to the party, was a staunch member and leader of the Labour Party and Obidient Movement in the state.

“As a matter of fact, Osunde was a pioneer member who organised the first Two Million Obidient Movement Walk in the state and had structures across the three senatorial districts, and has found it important to join our party, ” he added.

Oberaifo, however, added that AAC was an alternative to rescue Edo and its people from political, social and economics quagmire it found itself. (NAN)
