By Obaje Isah Yusuf
Electing Alhaji Halilu Alfa as the next Executive Chairman of Idah Local Government Area of Kogi State presents a vital opportunity for the growth, development, and prosperity of the Local Government. Alhaji Halilu Alfa is a well-respected figure known for his integrity, experience in governance, and dedication to community service.
Having served in various capacities, both at the State and the Local Government levels in successive government, his leadership promises to bring about positive changes that will benefit the people of Idah and position the local government as a model of development in Kogi State. His candidacy remains a symbol of hope for transparent leadership and a strong commitment to addressing the needs of the people.
One of the key imperatives of electing Alhaji Halilu Alfa is his deep understanding of the socio-economic challenges facing Idah Local Government Area. He shall advocate for policies that prioritize the welfare of the people, especially in areas such as security, healthcare, education, agriculture and infrastructure development. His leadership would ensure that resources are efficiently managed, and public funds are channeled toward projects that directly impact the lives of citizens. As someone who has lived and worked in Idah, he is well-equipped to address the unique challenges of the area, from improving access to quality healthcare to providing educational opportunities for young people.
Alhaji Alhaji as he is fondly called remains a visionary leader with a clear plan for economic empowerment and job creation. Under his leadership, Idah should anticipate to see strategic investments in agriculture, small businesses, and vocational training for the youth. His focus to develop the local economy aligns with the vision of His Excellency, Ahmed Usman Ododo, the Executive Governor of Kogi State.
The needs of a population that relies heavily on agriculture and small-scale trading, Hon. Alfa’s vision for economic growth includes modernizing farming techniques, providing access to markets, and ensuring that local businesses have the support they need to thrive. This approach would not only reduce poverty but also promote sustainable development in the area.
Security is another critical issue that Alhaji Alfa Halilu has pledged to tackle as Executive Chairman.
Idah Local Government, like many parts of Nigeria, faces security challenges that hinder progress. Alfa’s background in community engagement and conflict resolution makes him uniquely qualified to foster peace and stability in the region. By working closely with security agencies, traditional rulers, and local vigilantes, he plans to implement comprehensive security strategies that will safeguard lives and property, ensuring that citizens can live and work without fear. This shall be done in appreciation and improvement of the gains of Alhaji Abuh Odoma, the former Executive Chairman of the Local Government and the unwavering commitment cum substantial investment in security by the Executive Governor of the State Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo. As in the past, criminals and bad elements will have no place to hide in Idah Local Government Area.
Finally, Alhaji Halilu Alfa’s leadership shall be essential for promoting inclusive governance and ensuring that the voices and concerns of all Idah residents are heard. He shall consistently advocate for community participation in decision-making processes, ensuring that development projects reflect the true needs and aspirations of the people. His leadership style, which is both participatory and transparent, will foster trust between the local government and its citizens, creating an environment where everyone feels empowered to contribute to the region’s growth.
