DELTA 2015: Delta Guber Exclusive, Tony Obuh Retires from Government House

Speculations are rife that the Permanent Secretary, Delta State Government House and Protocol, Asaba, Mr. Tony Obuh may have retired from service of the Delta State Civil Service to pay more attention to his aspiration for Delta State governorship in 2015.

Feelers reaching us from Government House indicates that Mr. Obuh who is from Ika South Local Government Area is now the front runner for the governorship position to take over from Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan’s administration in 2015, purportedly threw-in the towel Monday September 1 to have more time to work towards achieving his aspiration for the Delta State Unity House.

Deltans were taken by storm when various groups came out in the last two weeks in support of Mr. Obuh’s aspiration. The Obuh aspiration has polarized the Ika nation, particularly Agbor. His entrance into the race has also upset the pockets of gubernatorial aspirants, including some old political brigades in the PDP.

It is also reliably gathered that the campaign train of Mr. Tony Obuh is currently in Kiagbodo to visit the home of Ijaw National Leader, Chief Edwin Clark to seek his blessing.

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...
