The most talked about and generally accepted governorship aspirant in the ongoing contestation for who becomes the successor of the incumbent governor of Delta State, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, JP, has purchased the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, expression of interest and nomination forms for the governorship election.
Oborevwori who was clouded by array of big time politicians which include; the Deputy Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Rt Hon Christopher Ocho, Managing Director of DESOPADEC, Bashorun Askia Ogie and others; displayed the forms which signals the commencement of another active politicking as all aspirants braces up for the party primaries scheduled to hold in the month of May, this year.
Oborevwori, who is obviously the most visible and prominent governorship aspirant in the present dispensation assured his teeming supporters and party faithfuls that his political associates will of a necessity set up pre party primaries structures and electioneering strategies that would see him victorious to fly the party’s flag in the gubernatorial elections next year.
He said his MORE Agenda captures the very essence of good governance, covering all aspects of infrastructure development and socioeconomic transformation needed to build on the SMART and Stronger Delta Agendas of the platinum governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa, adding that those who are not comfortable with his genuine plans to advance the economic fortunes of the state as encapsulated in his MORE blueprint have little or nothing to offer the State and the People.
He urged Delegates to massively vote him as PDP candidate in May, so that the party can win the governorship election in a landslide victory, noting that it is only a very popular and generally accepted politician like him can win the governorship election with ease.
