OUR QUEST IS TO MAKE LIFE BETTER FOR THE COMMON MAN- OWOLABI SALIS


Owolabi Salis, the governorship aspirant of Alliance for Democracy (AD) has reiterated his plans to channel state’s resources towards making life better for the ordinary people.
He made this pledge at the graduation ceremony of a free empowerment training scheme in Alimosho area, where 550 trainees were awarded. He added that Lagos commonwealth belongs to the people and its utilization for the betterment of the people and Lagos at large.
He noted that over 60, 000 Lagosians have benefited from the empowerment training in different parts of the state, stressing youths were picked in the different parts of state.
Sails said the foundation had trained beneficiaries in hair dressing, barbing; building;  electrical; plumbing; fashion designing; beauticology; shoe making; soap; balm making; among others.
He said plans were in place to assist those that were trained financially through grants, loan and other facilities that would assist them to become independent.
“There are monies from Bank of Industries (BOI) and even the Trader’s Money as well as other programmes meant for poverty alleviation but it doesn’t get to the people but we are presently looking into it and very soon people would have access to what rightly belongs to them.
“We are going to be having a seminar whereby we gather all the graduands together and we are going to train them on how to access the funds and also to supervise and make sure it gets to them.

“Beneficiaries of the empowerment program is not based on party, most of the people that have benefited from the empowerment programs are not from my party because the program is not political. It is a social event and if I emerge as the governor, it will be ungodly for me to discriminate those who are not in my party, I am not just the candidates of AD members but I am the candidate of the oppressed people in APC, PDP and other parties.
“The Alliance for Democracy, AD is made up of credible people from APC, PDP and about 24 other parties. We have just only one objective, and that is to take Lagos State Commonwealth resources and return it to the people and we are going to achieve it,” he posited.
