Allegations and contentions that the Governorship election in
Delta State was rigged are mere speculations and conjectures, which is usual in
every contest within our clime. The question, however, is: If the opposition
candidates who are contending that the Governorship election was rigged had
won, will they be saying the same thing today?
Without doubt, Delta State is a PDP State and even if a fresh
election is conducted in the State today, PDP will still win by a landslide, so
long as Senator Ifeanyi Okowa is the candidate. I therefore, advise those who
lost out in the Governorship election to listen to the voice of reason and put
on hold their complaints.
They should in the spirit of good sportsmanship, join hands with
the Governor-elect, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa to move the State forward in the
overall interest of all the people of this great State. We are one people with
a common destiny. Instead of all these acrimonious bickering, they should come
together in unity to develop our dear State. In every contest there must always
be winner and losers.
The Delta State Governor-Elect, Senator Ieanyi Okowa is committed
to serving the people of the State with passion when he assumes duty on May 29,
2015.
His victory at the governorship election was well deserved as Senator
Okowa was unarguably better than the other candidates in all ramifications. In
fact, most Deltans who have been around the governor-elect are moved by his
intellectual capability, understanding of issues, calmness and self-effacement, especially when you hear him speak on matters concerning Delta State.
It is therefore clear that with Senator Okowa as the governor of
this State, our people will witness a total rejuvenation of the economy of the
State. God cannot be mocked. The success of Okowa is purely the handiwork of
God.
The victory of Senator Okowa is a victory for equity and peaceful
co-existence of the entire Delta State. The
Governor-Elect knows that without the support of Deltans, his aspiration would
not have been a success. Hence he has unswervingly
emphasized that he will run a government of inclusion not a government of
exclusion. No section of Delta State will be excluded from government’s
development programmes.
He has also consistently assured that the support given to him by
Deltans will not bring them regrets, but will rather change the fortunes of our
land and our common history. He will bring his rich knowledge in public service
to transform our State. It is about the people, not about him.
