“He is like a Daniel that have come to judgement with leadership craftsmanship and sincerity to set a super-national standard at this level,by tasking every known leader in government that every means of governance requires a good and just leader to build structures with proven mandate to gain the needed confidence of the people.”
Hon Francis Waive is a priest and lawmaker of the 9th Assemby from the All Progressive Congress (APC).
Recall that during his declaration in 2018 to APC members, clergies, supporters and Christians from different denominations at Otu-Jeremi, Ughelli South Local Government Area, he promised that he was going to play an unusual style of politics as things would be done differently and that after his time at the House of Representative, the constituency would no longer have a representative in the green chamber who would see the job of lawmaking as a status symbol, economic benefits, political access and relevance.
