Dear
Benue Indigene,
It
is with deep sense of gratitude that I unveil to you LEAD Benue. The acronym
LEAD means Leadership Emancipation for Advancement and Development. LEAD Benue
is a product of creative thinking aimed at generating ideas and strategies that
will improve the quality of life of Benue citizens. The movement provides a non-partisan platform
to all willing Benue Indigenes or friends of Benue who want to contribute
positively to the development of the state in line with LEAD’s overarching
ideology of Social Impact Investment (SII).
In
Gboko, we expressed ourselves through the symposium which sought to reawake the
nationalism in the Benue youth and also provide a platform for them to
contribute to the development of the state. LEAD believes that the Benue youth
should be the drivers of change, and their enormous energy and creativity be
positively and effectively used to solve society’s problem but in a way that
does compromise the ability of the next generation to meet their needs. One
thing remains clear, the hunger for real change across the land is not in
doubt, it is an open secret that the youth have the potential to install a
social economic order that will deliver on the promises of yesterday.
This
ray of hope is a space for all patriotic Benue citizens who are willing to
invest in better Benue that will enable us to achieve our enormous potentials
and improve our quality of life. We will
keep pushing for “the higher high” until the commonwealth is enjoyed by the majority
of the Benue people.
LEAD
Benue believes that a Benue where all citizens have the opportunities to
realize potential is possible, the task of building this Benue of our dreams
may be hard and tough, the road ahead may be long, rough and narrow, in the
face of whatever challenges we will face, or what seductions and temptations,
our resolve for a better Benue will not be negotiated or compromised. Our
mission is to hand over a better Benue to our children’s children and remove
the curse that is hanging over us.
Ladies
and Gentlemen, comrades, I present to you the LEAD Brand! A national movement
that history will say, started in Benue State. it is my hope that LEAD will be
the rallying point of all men of goodwill who wants to see a better Benue, nay,
Nigeria!
Thank
you very much
