CHIEF EPHRAIM USMAN: UNVEILING THE POWER OF SERVANT LEADERSHIP IN KANAM LGA


By Panle Samuel PSP


Chief Ephraim Usman, the commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs has done many things worthy of commendation. Among few are:


1. Chief Ephraim Usman stands as a beacon of effective leadership within Kanam's political arena, earning the revered title of the Patriarch. His influence transcends mere titles, reflecting a profound dedication to the well-being of the Kanam community.


2. In contrast to his predecessor, Alh Dayabbu Dauda, who held the same position during the Lalong administration, Chief Ephraim Usman's tenure is characterized by proactive efforts to uplift the Kanam community, particularly its Muslim constituents. Dauda's term, upon scrutiny, reveals a lack of tangible support for the community, notably in sponsoring pilgrimages to Mecca.


3. This stark juxtaposition underscores the disparity between holding power and utilizing it for the common good. Chief Ephraim Usman's leadership is defined by inclusivity and advocacy, positioning him as a beacon of optimism and progress in politics.


4. The unmet promises of Honorable Gagdi further accentuate Chief Ephraim Usman's prominence as the Patriarch of Kanam politics. Despite pledging five pilgrimage slots for Kanam Muslims in 2024, he failed to secure even one, leading to disillusionment within the community.


5. Moreover, Gagdi's offer of one million naira as compensation for his failure exacerbates the gap between rhetoric and action in politics.


6. In contrast, Chief Ephraim Usman's unwavering commitment to Kanam's Muslim population is evident through his consistent actions and tangible results. His advocacy for constituents' rights resonates deeply, illustrating his dedication to their well-being.


7. Usman's leadership goes beyond mere promises, as he tirelessly works to fulfill the aspirations of the Kanam community. His commitment to inclusivity and representation sets him apart as a symbol of progress in politics.


8. Chief Ephraim Usman's contributions to Kanam are extensive and varied. He has secured over 20 slots for Jerusalem pilgrims, distributed hundreds of bags of maize to alleviate food scarcity, and constructed classroom buildings.


9. Additionally, he has provided substantial welfare support during Ramadan, showcasing his unwavering dedication to the community's welfare.


10. In conclusion, Chief Ephraim Usman's unparalleled contributions and steadfast commitment rightfully earn him the title of the Patriarch of Kanam politics, enhancing the lives of its people and shaping the future of the region.


11. His leadership serves as a beacon of hope and inspiration, guiding future generations towards progress and prosperity.


Remain blessed
