What is politics? It comes from the Greek word
politikos and is defined as “the practice and theory
of influencing people on a civic or individual level”.
Governance however comes from the Greek word Kubernao and it simply means to steer, direct and effectively manage something. But my question is simple;
how can you steer something that you have not yet
influenced? This is the reason why individuals with
this dual ability are the types of leaders desperately
needed in Nigeria today, and Senator Aisha Jummai
Al-Hassan embodies both qualities completely.
As a politician she is first class and she demonstrated
especially during her grass roots campaign to become
the Senator for Taraba North that she knows how to
influence people effectively and caused them to rally
behind her and support her cause. In business and in
all her entrepreneurial endeavours, she has demonstrated incredible management and leadership qualities
which have strengthened her ability to govern, and to
become an effective manager of both human as well as
financial resources.
She exemplifies a courageous heart and as Aristotle
one of the greatest philosophers of all time said and
I quote “Courage is the first of human qualities
because it is the quality which guarantees the others”. It takes the personal conviction of one’s intentions and a courageous disposition, to embark on a
political career in Nigeria. Senator Aisha Jummai
Al-Hassan is a political trailblazer who continues
to serve her people with dignity and with the highest level of integrity. She is a role model to women
nationwide and a credit to the great people of Taraba
state; a truly remarkable Nigerian Politician, lawyer,
business woman and philanthropist who feels the pain
and struggle of the common man, and works day and
night seeking for ways to alleviate the sufferings of the
masses. We are highly expectant and unequivocally
convinced that the future has only great things in store
for this remarkable public servant and humanitarian
whose life is impacting thousands of people in and out
of Taraba state. She is truly an “exceptional leader”.
