 ERAZUA POISED TO MAKE A CLEAR DIFFERENCE



By: Oriaifoh Godwins


Hon. Nicholas Erazua, the foremost aspirant in Esan west for the Chairmanship position, in the upcoming Edo state local government election, has proven beyond every reasonable doubt that he has the TEMERITY & CAPACITY to make a clear difference that cannot be controverted, if given the opportunity to pilot the affairs of Esan west local government area.


Hon Erazua who is aspiring to contest for the position of Chairman of Esan west local government area, under the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, spoke with our correspondent today, Sunday, 11th September 2022.


He said, it's not just enough to have a vision for the people; the road map for actualising the vision, must be very clear. 


In his words; '...any one that is presenting himself as a candidate for the position of a Chairman of a local government, must know what it entails. According to Him, being the Chairman of a local government, is the most important position in impacting the lives of the people, and until we get it right, he said, we will continue to achieve the same poor results in local government administration.


Hon. Erazua who said gone are the days when local government administrators endlessly look up to financial allocations from the Federal Capital Territory, added that, the time has come to begin to tap the several yet to be tapped agricultural resources that abound in Esan west.   '...we are going to take a lead in looking inwards and I am sure other local governments will follow suit by the time they see our success stories for the Chairmanship position of Esan west...' He concluded.




Hon. Erazua who concluded by saying; ...if we continue to do the same thing the same way, we will keep getting same results, added that, it is time for Esan west to do it differently so as to get a better result for the good of all. '...It is time to make a difference and that is what I am determined to do, otherwise, I have no business in contesting...'
