… As APC members in Wards 3 & 4 Empties into PDP
Immediate past Governor of Delta State, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa has called on all Deltans to cue behind Governor Sheriff Oborevwori in 2027.
Addressing party faithful in Ika North East Wards 3 and 4, Boji-Boji Owa, today, Okowa stated that Governor Oborevwori has demonstrated love for all Deltans and has initiated policies that are adding value to the lives of the average Deltan.
Okowa, who expressed joy at the massive turnout of party faithful in the two wards, took a swipe at the few PDP members who left the party despite their personal achievements and successes, which were largely traceable to the empowerment they received while in the PDP.
He said he is aware of the antics of those looking to deceive others but expressed confidence that party members knew those who truly meant well for them and their communities.
Okowa further expressed joy at the decision of the party leaders in the local government to initiate a monthly contributory scheme aimed at empowering the people.
He said, “It’s a thing of joy seeing party leaders coming together to extend ₦100,000 grants to each of the 100 persons drawn from the two wards.”
He added, “₦100,000 might not be too much considering the state of the economy, but I do not have any iota of doubt that it will have an impact on the very micro businesses of these our people, even as it will also aid and encourage our farmers.”
“The beauty of this process is that the party leaders have assured that two wards will benefit from this gesture every month going forward,”
Addressing the crowd earlier, the PDP Chairman in Ika North East, Hon Chuks Agbormah, welcomed the former governor and other party leaders to Owa Model Primary School, where the rally was held.
He assured the party leaders that efforts are ongoing to continue mobilizing support for Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.
Hon Chuks Agbormah later received members of the APC who decamped to the PDP and assured them that the umbrella was large enough to accommodate them.
Other leaders that graced the occasion includes Hon Victor Nwokolo Member Representing Ika Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Honorable Marilyn Okowa Daramola Representing Ika North East State Constituency in the Delta State House of Assembly, Dr Kingsley Emu Secretary to the Delta State Government, Mr Charles Aniagwu Hon Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, Hon Monday Hunkamma Odigwe Chairman Ika North East, Dr Hillary Ibegbulem, Mr Ifeanyi Egboigbe, Dr Frank Nwugo, Hon Tony Elekeokwuri,
Mr Raymond Mgbakor, Mr Emeke Asiwe.
