Governor Uduaghan Mobilises Deltans For Collection Of Permanent Voters’ Cards

Uduaghan Mobilises Deltans For Collection Of Permanent Voters’ Cards
The Governor of Delta State, Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan has called on people of the State to take the forthcoming collection of permanent voters’ card exercise serious with a charge on top government officials and party leaders to be in the vanguard of the sensitization campaign.
Governor Uduaghan has already commenced sensitisation meetings with relevant stakeholders on senatorial district basis to ensure that voters collect their permanent cards when the distribution exercise kicks off on August 15.
In a meeting with Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Stakeholders from Delta Central in Warri on Monday, Governor Uduaghan stressed that the collection of permanent voters’ card is as important as the voters registration exercise.
“The collection of permanent voters’ card is a very serious exercise because your winning any election whether local government, state or federal depends on your voters card. So it is for us to mobilise our people, our community people, our families, our party members to go and collect their permanent voter’s card.
“I expect that the party at the senatorial level will also meet with the local chairman, council chairmen and map out strategies on how to ensure that people go and collect their voter’s card,” he said.
Dr. Uduaghan who explained that the meeting was also to rob minds on the forthcoming local government election in the state, commended the peaceful approach that the various aspirants and their supporters have adopted so far and urged them to continue to maintain the peace.
The Governor expressed the hope that the series of party activities being undertaken would produce credible candidates that would not only fly the PDP’s flag in the forthcoming polls but win both as chairmen and councillors.
He told the party leaders, aspirants and stakeholders that it is possible to have a consensus candidate where that is the opinion of the majority.
Dr. Uduaghan who observed that PDP is the only party currently mobilising for the forthcoming local government polls in the state reiterated that his party is working hard to “win and we shall win freely and squarely.”
“I want to advise that if you don’t get it (the ticket) there is no need trying to defect to another party because there is no other party that can carry you the way PDP is carrying you,” the Governor told aspirants.

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove...
