From
the sand beach of Burutu local government area to the agrarian Oshimili North
local government area, his name rings the best and the right bell that those on
the mountain top and in the deep sea do not need to strain ears to hear. From
the lyrics of the song “ Senator Okowa is right, he is right and fair…behold
our next governor”, even the unborn child leaps for joy and cannot wait further
to join others in mimicking ‘the rightness, the brightness, and the future hope
embedded in Senator Ifeanyi Okowa.
Even
former critics have fallen in dying love for his oratory, sagacity, composure
and mien. He has shown maturity, rare convincing prowess and astuteness in the
marketing of his policy thrust during the rallies.
At
some locations Senator Okowa lost his voice owing to constant presentations of
his manifestoes to different classes of people. He has convincingly shown that
he is the man that Delta people have been yearning for and no time was riper
than now.
No
doubt, there are a lot of midnight falsehood, blackmail, concocted lies and
fairy tales against Senator Okowa, but the deep clouds of anxiety are
suspended in the people’s mental skies as more people are emotionally aware
today about what the future holds for our dear State.
It
is a new dawn that beckons as Senator Okowa, the PDP standard bearer in the
forthcoming elections continues to give hope to Delta people. He has not failed
in reassuring the people that the future is bright because he too, has seen
hope in Delta. He has given the people the needed soothing balm to continuously
keeping faith with the government to ensure their hope is not dashed.
He
has been very convincing in his promises that many have moved to echo the same
words that the Jews after hearing Jesus delivering his famous sermon on the
mount were moved to “never have any man spoken like this”. Yes, Okowa is
not a neophyte in the field of politics and governance. He knows exactly where
the future leads and he seeks the support of every Deltan through the ballot so
that he can achieve the vaunted industrialization, agriculture and sustainable
development.
His
vision for the State, which he has constantly harped on even at the campaign
rallies is to: leverage and build on the present administration, transform
the economy of Delta State via industrialization, agriculture and sustainable
public-private sector initiative, thereby opening up more opportunities for
growth and improved living standards among our people, creation of jobs,
including respect and upholding the tenets of democratic governance, which he
unflinchingly stands for.
He
has also promised to ensure the security of lives and property of the people at
all times, while adhering to the principle of the rule of law, thereby ensuring
equity, justice and fair play, promoting unity and oneness across the State,
with due respect for Traditional Institutions and the Elders of our society and
to continuously develop, mobilise, and empower the women and the youths via
planned and well-articulated welfare programmes.
Senator
Okowa is confident that with the support of the people, he would vigorously
pursue the task of rural development and integration, which will bring the
benefits and dividends of democratic governance to every nook and cranny of the
State, including the promotion of trade, commerce, and tourism between Delta,
Nigeria and the rest of the world.
He
is passionate about an all-round development and continuous transformation of
the State; passionate about wealth creation for our people, passionate about
industrialisation and economic development, and above all, passionate about the
well-being of the average Delta person on a sustainable basis.
Senator
Okowa is committed to lifting Delta State into the comity of highly
industrialised States. There is no gainsaying that Senator Ifeanyi Okowa
is that force of change that will galvanise all Deltans, irrespective of
ethnic, stock, religion, or political affiliation, and create a springboard on
which the people will ride to unprecedented levels of economic well-being and
development.
It
is time to put a capable man on the saddle of development, It is time to put a
right peg in that right hole, a time to turn our dreams to reality, he is the
right choice for the continuous transformation and economic development of
Delta people, he is the right choice in this divine mandate to take Delta State
to the Promised Land. Okowa remains the right choice to further transform and
bequeath to our children, the future generation a better Delta State.
