1. What is the most important issue in Council District 12 you would address if elected?
The issue of transparency that characterizes good governance & true leadership comes to mind right away. However, my focus & energy will be geared towards socio-economic community development. The need of the people are constantly changing, my number one priority will be to engage the community in the area of empowerment.
2. What other important issues would you address if elected?
Public Safety will be addressed & Education, the bedrock of our future will be overhauled to meet the challenge of our time. Lack of engagement/participation will be restored. Our seniors will be protected. Our youths will be revitalized to embrace a promising future. Low cost housing, rather than affordable housing will champion our conversation.
3. What makes you the best candidate for this office?
My military & law enforcement background makes me a strong advocate of strategy. My rich cultural background epitomizes my moral value. My community involvement attributable to my scholastic achievement & professional experience speaks volume. As a sculptor among wise men, while the wise men will preserve a piece of marble handed over to them, I will turn the same piece of marble into a masterpiece.
