A NEW COVENANT FOR KADUNA CENTRAL: THE YERIMA SHETTIMA AGENDA:

By Bashir Umar Mohammed
( National Secretary of the Capacity Movement Project 2027)

“My Fellow Citizens, Brothers, and Sisters of Kaduna Central,”

“For decades, I have stood with you, not above you. I have raised my voice not for personal gain, but for our collective rights. I have fought in the trenches of activism to consolidate our democracy and give power back to the people. Today, I answer a new call—to take that same fighting spirit, that same unwavering principle, and that same love for our people from the streets to the Red Chambers.”

“I am not a career politician. I am a servant leader. My bid for the Senate is not about a title; it is about a mandate for transformative change. Therefore, I present to you my sacred covenant—a seven-point agenda that will guide my service to you.”

  1. Democratic Consolidation & Transparent Governance:
    “I will be your watchdog in Abuja. I will champion legislation for true electoral integrity, fight for the autonomy of our local governments, and ensure every Naira allocated to Kaduna Central is accounted for. Your voice will be heard in the hallways of power.”
  2. Economic Empowerment & Youth Renaissance:
    Our greatest resource is our people. I will establish a dedicated platform for skills acquisition and push for laws that create a “Kaduna Central Youth and Women Enterprise Fund.” We will turn our youth from job seekers to job creators.
  3. Security & Community Peace:
    “I will move beyond rhetoric to action. I will advocate for a smarter, better-equipped, and community-driven security architecture. I will sponsor bills that address the root causes of conflict, poverty and unemployment because a safe community is a prosperous community”.
  4. Inclusive & Equitable Representation:
    “I will operate an open-door policy. Through regular town hall meetings and a Constituency Advisory Council comprising youth, women, and persons with disabilities, I will ensure that your needs directly shape the laws I sponsor.”
  5. Legislative Reform for Social Justice:
    “My background in activism has taught me that the law must protect the weak. I will sponsor and support bills that promote social justice, increase access to quality education and healthcare, and fight corruption at every level.”
  6. Infrastructure & Sustainable Development:
    “I will be your chief advocate for the infrastructural development of Kaduna Central. From the completion of our vital road networks to championing rural electrification and water projects, I will ensure we get our fair share of federal projects.”
  7. Building a United and Prosperous Kaduna:
    “I will be a Senator for all, regardless of ethnicity, religion, or political affiliation. I will use my office to promote dialogue, celebrate our diversity as a strength, and work tirelessly to heal the divisions that hold us back. Our unity is non-negotiable.”

This is more than a promise; it is a bond of trust. With your support, we will write a new chapter for Kaduna Central, a chapter of hope, progress, and shared prosperity.

Join me. Let’s build a Kaduna Central we can all be proud of.

Yours in Service,
Alhaji Yerima Usman Shettima
