anywhere in the world. Nigeria is part of the world.
“It is true that we are facing some challenges, but the
present government is working hard to ensure we overcome our challenges as a
nation.

states because we are better than the rest.
“We have a presidential candidate who is a nationalist, a
builder of men and women, an achiever.
She submitted, “Tinubu’s emergence is the best thing that
happened to APC.
“A man with no record of discrimination against gender,
tribe, and religion
“Why not Tinubu ? A man whose good deeds are already
speaking for him”.
On Isuikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency seat 2023

working hard with her constituents for greater representation.
“My constituents are my topmost priority. I am a village
woman. I know my people.
“They also know me and they love me. I believe my people are
with me.
“It is my desire to do more good and I will always try my
best.
“I want to be remembered for making a positive impact in my
constituency.
“2023 is about the progress of Nigeria. It is about our
people and our nationhood”.
