-

Chairman of Aquilla Group, Chief Shina Peller has officially declared his intention to contest in the 2019 general election under the flagship of the All Progressiv­e Congress ( APC). In a statement released by the serial entreprene­ur and philanthro­pist, he disclosed that after reflection and extensive consultati­ons he has come out formally to declare his intention to represent the Iseyin, Itesiwaju, Kajola, Iwajowa Federal Constituen­cy at the House of Representa­tives come 2019.

The statement said: “My people, after a deep thought, reflection and extensive consultati­ons, I have decided to formally declare my intention to represent the Iseyin, Itesiwaju, Kajola, Iwajowa federal constituen­cy at the House of Representa­tives in 2019.

I appreciate the advice and concern from well- wishers and mentors who are worried that going into politics will be detri- mental to my business interests which I have worked so hard to build over the last two decades, but I think the time for social media and arm chair politics is over. We need to take our destiny into our own hands for the sake of Nigeria, for the sake of our children, and the less privileged in our society.

“My focus in politics will be to ensure that institutio­ns work and people can benefit from government services irrespecti­ve of class or social status.

“I want to help create policies that will help diversify our economy with a renewed focus on tourism, manufactur­ing and youth empowermen­t.

“I encourage all young people to follow my cue and take an active role in partisan politics. This is our time. The time is now.
