Hon. Dickson Tarkighir: A Beacon of Hope and Transformation in Makurdi/Guma

*Hon. Dickson Tarkighir: A Beacon of Hope and Transformation in Makurdi/Guma**

 

In the heart of Nigeria’s legislative landscape, Hon. Dickson Tarkighir stands out as a dedicated member of the 10th National Assembly, representing the Makurdi/Guma Federal Constituency. His unwavering commitment to his constituents is not just a matter of political duty; it is a testament to his love for his people and a vision poised for transformative growth.

 

Recently, Hon. Tarkighir announced the construction of a 40 bed hospital in Daudi, with a completion deadline looming just a month away. This initiative is a clear reflection of his focus on improving healthcare access for his constituents. Such projects are essential not only for immediate needs but also for establishing a foundation of well being that supports future generations.

 

What sets Hon. Tarkighir apart is his hands on approach to governance. He has made headlines by facilitating job opportunities for over 400 members of his community, sharing appointment letters from key national agencies like the NIS, NSCDC, NDLEA, and the Nigeria Police. This remarkable feat is more than just numbers; it represents hope and the promise of progress for many families. His constituency’s WhatsApp group buzzes with announcements of federal and private Job vacancies, these are vacancies he can influence, showcasing a seamless process that connects opportunity with aspiration. By encouraging constituents to apply, regardless of personal connections, Hon. Tarkighir is reshaping the narrative around access to government and multinational beverage and NGO jobs.

 

His approach embodies a refreshing ethos of inclusivity. Whether you are a member of the PDP or APC, a Christian or Muslim, or from any background, once the opportunity to serve your community through government, multinational or NGO positions is open, Dickson must ensure his people get it all. This level of accessibility fosters a sense of belonging and empowerment, illustrating that one does not need a personal relationship with their representative to benefit from his goodwill.

 

Hon. Tarkighir’s vision extends far beyond mere job placements. He is strategically positioning his constituents in government ministries and parastatals, ensuring that in the span of 30 years, they will grow into influential figures who contribute positively to constituency. This foresight demonstrates a long term commitment to building a community that thrives through shared governance and mutual upliftment.

 

While Hon. Ojotu Ojema also receives praise from his beneficiaries in the constituency, the reality is that Hon. Tarkighir’s impact creates a ripple effect that reaches all corners of Makurdi/Guma. His tireless efforts serve as an inspiration, encouraging all leaders within the community to strive for excellence and accountability.

 

In a time when political goodwill can often feel like a distant ideal, Hon. Dickson Tarkighir emerges as a paladin for his people. His commitment to service, transparency, and equitable access to opportunities is reshaping the future of his constituency. As he continues to work towards these steadfast goals, one thing remains clear: the legacy he is building today will inspire generations to come.

 

As a supporter of good governance and community upliftment, iam Comrade Paul G. Edoh Jr., I will continue to stand firm in my belief that these benevolent actions must be recognized and celebrated even when this man is no longer in power. May we continue to rally behind leaders who prioritize the well being of the constituency.
