Ifeanyi Okowa, the governor of Delta State and a vice presidential candidate for the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), claimed that only the PDP had the necessary expertise to revive the country’s economy and put an end to the widespread insecurity.
This was said by Okowa yesterday during the party’s campaign in the state’s Ughelli North and Isoko South Local Government Areas.
The PDP Presidential Candidate, H.E Atiku Abubakar, has the necessary experience and political will to turn things around for the country, as he did when he served as Vice-president under President Olusegun Obasanjo when the PDP was first elected in 1999, Okowa said urging Nigerians to join forces with the PDP to rescue and rebuild the country from suffering caused by the APC Federal Government.
He asked the populace to support the party candidates who he described as being level-headed rather than the haughty politicians who he said brought shame and disgrace to the state.
According to him, youths and women of Delta are our great strength, and once I see them i know the matter is finished.
“I thank all of you who are here present and my greatest thanks goes to youths and women of Delta State.”
“I am happy with the crowd of people I see here today in Ughelli North. We have been seeing such crowds before but this one is exceptional.
We do not want a governor that will be too proud to relate with the people and you know that our candidate Sheriff Oborevwori is a humble man, who has immense respect for the people. When Oborevwori becomes governor, he will unite Deltans because we don’t want a governor that will look down on other people, he said.
