It is often said that if ballot papers can reach every nook and cranny of the federation, including creeks, offshore areas, and even forests, then there can be no excuse for the dividends of democracy not reaching the people.

Nigerian senators must align themselves with the citizens to meet these expectations and deliver the dividends of democracy. After all, it is their fundamental duty as elected representatives.

Senators are chosen by the people to advocate for their interests, address their concerns, and enact policies that promote the welfare and progress of the nation. By aligning with the citizens, senators can ensure effective governance, transparency, and accountability.

It is imperative for senators to actively engage with the needs and aspirations of the people, listen to their voices, and work towards the common good. Only through this alignment can senators fulfill their mandate, strengthen democratic institutions, and foster a prosperous and inclusive society for all Nigerians.

One elected senator who stands out as a potential game-changer and great performer in the tenth National Assembly is Mallam Saliu Mustapha, the Turaki of Ilorin. Despite his young age (in his forties), Mustapha has a long-standing foundation for humanitarian services that spans over 18 years.

Every year, he spends hundreds of millions of naira uplifting people out of poverty through his foundation, the Saliu Mustapha Foundation, which is renowned across the 36 states of the federation for its impactful empowerment drives.

Even without holding a public office prior to his senatorial election, Mustapha has managed to meet the aspirations of the people of Kwara through his tireless efforts. With individuals like Saliu Mustapha in positions of power, Nigerians can maintain hope that the tenth National Assembly will bring substantial benefits to the masses, who are in dire need of critical attention, both economically and through policies that sustain development.

Take note that the tenth National Assembly in Nigeria possesses the potential to bring about significant and transformative change. It is crucial to acknowledge the valuable role of senators like Mallam Saliu Mustapha, who have demonstrated their dedication to serving the people and advocating for humanitarian causes.

These senators play a vital role in bridging the gap between citizens’ expectations and the reality on the ground. By aligning themselves with the concerns of the people and actively working towards their welfare, senators can effectively fulfill their mandate and contribute to the nation’s growth and prosperity.

Saliu Mustapha’s commitment to uplifting the less privileged and driving progress positions him as a promising figure within the Nigerian political sphere.
