Executive Assistant to Delta State Governor on Communications, Olorogun Dr Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe Esq, has emphasized the need for media Aides to leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and aspirants in the just concluded party primaries to collapse structures and form productive synergy to market all candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the ongoing electioneering processes.
Oghenesivbe made the call during a mid-news interview on radio monitored in Asaba on Friday morning, 17th June, 2022, saying that Delta is well endowed with vibrant media professionals, bloggers and social media influencers, adding that they must now come together to harness their professional skills, so as to effectively project PDP candidates, achievements, policies and programmes of Okowa administration.
The renowned communication strategist and Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Information and Strategy Management, CIISM, further asserted that struggle for political power usually come with some packages, and that it has been the tradition to collapse structures after party primaries and form media and publicity synergy for electioneering campaigns for the attainment of victories.
“God has been very faithful to us in Delta State. We had peaceful and transparent party primaries and to crown it all our amiable governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa, emerged as the running mate for PDP presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, Turaki Adamawa.
“For the first time in Delta, we are going to have a sitting Speaker of the House of Assembly, in the person of Rt Hon Sheriff Francis Oborevwori, the Unifier as our governor in 2023. This is awesome and its the Lord’s doing, we give God praise.
“While we were still basking in the euphoria of victory recorded at the transparent governorship primary, celebrating our governor in waiting, Rt Hon Oborevwori, our state leader and governor, Senator Okowa became Vice President in waiting on Thursday 16th June. You can see clearly that Delta is blessed beyond human comprehension!
“This is the right time for our enlarged media team members across board; those loyal to party leaders, former aspirants and governor’s media aides to unite and form a strong synergy against the opposition party as we navigate into electioneering campaigns towards 2023 general elections.
“I will personally reach out with the message of peace to all media aides and social media influencers of our leaders, as well as those within government, and to make them realise that primaries are over, we remain members of one indivisible PDP family.
“Our common enemy is the national government of the All Progressives Congress, APC, which crumbled the economy of Nigeria and incurred huge foreign debts to impoverish Nigerians.
“We must come together to project our great party, PDP, and her candidates, take over Aso Rock from the APC in 2023,” Oghenesivbe said.
