Those who never tested unemployment Will never understand the importance of recommendation letter.
Those who were born in a Duplex in Portharcourt won't understand the pain of being a tenant and looking for house rent.
Those who were born in the best hospitals and who always travel abroad for medical check-up and treatment won't understand the benefits of Free Medical Outreach.
Those who inherited their parents properties and cars and who are riding on the name of their parents won't understand street men like us.
Those who never delayed to pay school fees won't understand the pain of hustling to raise school fees.
You can't talk about poverty alleviation when you have never been poor before. How can you talk about giving people Job when you have never been unemployed before?
I have passed through the cradle and crucibles of life and I understand the problem of my people. People identified me and gave me the opportunity to grow. That's why I want to see others grow.
That's why I registered WAEC for five persons in my Ward last year through Omes Godwin and that's why I registered two persons on a skill acquisition program.
That's why I'm renovating the Dilapidated Primary School in my village.
That's why I'm doing Free Medical Outreach in the rural areas in Etche. That's why I lobbied and begged to put few Persons in the army. That's why I lobbied to put 7 persons in the Federal Civil Service.
That's why I sent Chinemerem Nwankwo to Dubai to work and study.
That's why I gave Okehi Divisional Police Station a Borehole.
When I leave office, I will give account of the little things I have done.
My office doesn't receive money for and on behalf of government. My office doesn't generate revenue nor receive revenue.
My office does not have a budget for any project apart from salary and wages.
Whatever I do is from my heart. God knows I take from my salary to do the little I'm doing. I do not intend to own too much properties and have billions in my account while my Community doesn't have a health center, Borehole, Primary School etc.
I have the fear God and one Day I will die and I will give account to God.
I do not intend to Please everybody. But I will try my best within the limit of my resources.
I am too focused to be distracted by gossips and criticisms. I am strong and courageous. I have cosmic companion. I have the grace of God.
I will not fail God. I will not fail my generation.
So help me God.
Marshall Israel
