If elected, Dokpesi will be the second female to hold the position of PTA Chairman. She is a dedicated parent and an ardent advocate for education, and she is determined to bring about positive change within the school community.
Dokpesi’s candidacy is a positive step towards greater gender representation in leadership positions. She is a highly qualified and experienced individual, and her vision for the PTA is aligned with the needs of students, parents, and teachers alike.
I encourage all members of the PTA to support Dokpesi’s candidacy. With her leadership, the PTA can become an even more effective force for good in the school community.
The following is a statement obtained from her verified Facebook page:
I have spent the last few days consulting with parents and teachers alike on my aspiration to become the PTA Chairman.
I started off with my south south extraction parents and teachers as that is where i belong first to and after getting their blessings, i moved on to other parents and teachers alike.
A lot of people may ask why aspire to be the chairman and not the vice chairman or any other position?
I believe that women are great custodians and are able to handle responsibilities no matter how difficult they may be.
Women are given sperm which they turn to babies.
Women are given houses which they turn to homes.
And as the notion says, “what a man can do, a woman can do even better.
I would share my manifesto as shared to the parents and teachers alike.
My Dear parents and educators,
Today, I stand before you with a hopeful heart and an unwavering determination to bring about positive change within our beloved school community.
My name is Homto Dokpesi, a Managing Director with over 10 years of experience in various sectors, I have successfully managed multi-million dollar annual revenues, implemented private and public cloud services, and applied innovative strategies to decision making in business.
