A group of progressive, forward
looking and patriotic Deltans yesterday in Asaba, resolved to rally support for the Permanent
Secretary, Government House, Asaba, Mr Tony Obuh.
They also urged Governor Emmanuel
Uduaghan and the Delta State Peoples Democratic Party Chairman, Chief Peter
Nwaoboshi to ensure that Mr. Obuh is drafted into the Governorship race.
Meeting under the aegis of DELTA
PROGRESSIVES, the group described Mr. Tony Obuh as a symbol of unity, change
and qualitative leadership. Obuh values the unity, stability and orderly
development of Delta State” the group said.
In a statement issued after the meeting signed by the President, Mr. Ogagaoghene Otikpo and the Chief Adviser of the
group, Dr. Innocent Ojefia stressed that the decision to draft Obuh into the
governorship election in the State was born out of our patriotic desire to promote and
sustain democratic institutions and also use his vast experiences in Government to promote
good governance of the State.
Mr. Tony Obuh is an embodiment of humility,
simplicity and hard work. He is the face of integrity and resourcefulness. He
is also the best chance for the Anioma people to attain the Delta governorship
and the most suitable person to lead the State after the tenure of Dr. Uduaghan
being an insider” the statement said.
Obuh will allow for continuity and maintain a
stable and peaceful State, promote social justice and protect groups that for
various reasons are politically weak. He will also embark on aggressive
development of the State and regularly consult the elders, women, youth, traditional
rulers and others on how to move the State forward.”
The group urged Deltans at home and abroad,
to line up behind her. “We need a Governor who is cool headed with exceptional qualities and proven
records of service.
