What is one life experience you have that voters should know about?
My United States veteran father Paul Hagins Jr., was murdered at the age of 21 years of age and I was 2 years of age. The stories of his pursuit for higher education led to me becoming an award-winning producing teacher and to change my name to Ogbonna which means the image of his father in the Igbo language.
What would be your top three policy priorities in office?
1. An elected School Board
2. Up-to-date sustainability and recycling policies.
3. Decreasing crime and violence by decreasing the economic wealth Gap by establishing an reparations task force for The descendants of American slavery and the subsequent discrimination of Afro-Americans.
What sets you apart from other candidates?
I am a people person who speaks at City Council meetings every Thursday. I read and understand the bills and resolutions that are introduced and can adequately speak to these proposed policies. This gives me a unique understanding of what needs to be done to improve this city.
How do you plan to work across ideological lines to achieve shared goals?
I plan to do this by motivating and inspiring the people of Philadelphia to become engaged and involved in the political process. I feel that ideology is based on understanding. I have a unique way of providing information to substantiate my positions.
The Committee of Seventy has partnered with the Carter Center to promote the Candidate Principles for Trusted Elections to improve the voting process, encourage honest leadership, and promote civic engagement. Do you support the Candidate Principles?
Yes
