Haske: "I built billion-dollar businesses, now I want to build my state"
22 September 2026
In an interview, Haske explained his rationale for entering politics: "If we can excel in businesses and build multi-billion-dollar businesses, why can't we be trusted with governance?" On his campaign's timeline, he said: "I started this journey in August of 2024. I've been dedicated, I've been consistent and my messaging has been the same." Addressing questions about his age relative to other contenders, he said: "Don't vote my age, vote my pedigree and what I have done for people." He added that he does not see the role as a route to personal wealth: "I am not coming into government to make wealth. Alhamdulillah, I'm okay."
