I'm proud to have been sent here as a representative for my people. It was they who mentored me and pushed me forward in my life, who asked me to stand, and who drove my campaign. I will do everything I can to live up to your faith in me and realise our hopes and aspirations. I am a grassroots leader who believes that politicians serve the people, and therefore must ensure that the voices of their people are heard, that their faces are seen, and that they are heard and that they are felt in this place.
