Engr. Mrs. Kemi Josephine Elebute-Halle will stand tall in the list of female politicians redefining the course of the Nigerian political space at the moment. For many politicians alike, Mrs. Kemi does not just see politics as a game of numbers; she fancies more of the number of impacts a politician can bring to bare when called to serve.
She is a product of the Global Order and recognises the effect of building relationships across board. She is confident, articulate and multi-faceted politician who is well-respected by the electorates in her native ward and beyond.
“Being heard and making a difference in the country; those are the reasons I wanted to get into politics since I was a teenager in college. I am driven to see people grow through stretching my hands to help,” she asserted.
She is tagged as a visionary and resourceful leader with comprehensive history in political affairs and development initiatives. She founded Dominion Group, an organisation she is using to help Nigerians gain succour. With her foundation, she has lined a host of Humanitarian activities that have assisted youths, students, widows, prisoners, single parents and especially the elderly.
Without mincing words, she has showed remarkable courage as a leader. As a structural engineer, she carried out robust and innovative projects across the country. She is a farmer who likes a highly-motivated and educated populace to spur high-tech boom and bring rapid agro-economic development to the country.
“I am really conscious of where this country is going to. And I must say that we have massive prospects when you look at the talents spread all over the country. Some of my mandates are geared towards annexing these talents whichever way I can and bring out the best in them. Through my foundation, I and my team have crafted out a few ideas in education, health, gender equality, and curbing of poverty. These ideas are properly aligned with some of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals,” she further said.
Kemi Josephine Elebute-Halle recently announced the ‘The Road To School’. She called it the ‘first-of-its-kind’ social media series that highlight all the challenges an ordinary African child faces to achieve education. Perhaps an emphatic example can be sighted at the number of young Nigerians she has sponsored to University level.
“Mrs. Kemi Halle is an endearing fellow. She is so particular about other people’s well-being. She gives premium to helping. I have managed to work closely with a few persons she helped solve their problems. Alot of small businesses are thriving in her community because of her goodness. How about those who do not have shelter? She has built homes for the poor across town and beyond. I am personally proud of what she has achieved over the last couple of years,” Bashirat Hassan, an Indigene of Kwara State schooling in Ekiti State said.
Mrs. Kemi Josephine Elebute-Halle enjoys the unalloyed love and support of her Israeli husband, Haim Halle who is also CEO of Hellekem Limited, a foremost Construction Company in Nigeria. She also values the concepts the private sector has opened her mind towards, and aim to use those skills in enhancing her drills in public service. She is currently S.A to the Director Planning, Presidential Support Committee (PSC), under the Presidency.
She is the first female guber candidate in her State, where she ran under the umbrella of the ADC. Because of her industry, guile, and political wit – she was appointed DG of the party’s Presidential Campaign Council. The coming years seem clinical with the possibilities Engr. Kemi Josephine Elebute-Halle possesses.
