I know that the so called opposition faithful of today would
return to the altar of truth after the Supreme Court judgement and their
failure to clinch their much desired federal appointments. Only then would they
know that is not their party. The opposition in Delta State is too hurriedly
assembled and too angry to avoid mistakes. In the end, they tell lies,
apportion blames in order to destroy the polity. The opposition in their grand
deception have brandished themselves as an amalgam of saints.
Above all, the people of the State have kept faith with the PDP. A
party, though not perfect but constantly engages the sections of the society
before arriving at any major decision. How else can one explain that the opposition
parties are brandishing candidates who are not from Delta North senatorial
zone, a section of the State that is enjoying the governorship for the first
time, since 1991.
The opposition in Delta State is an emergency contraption designed
to carter for the interest of the aggrieved. It does not have the structure to
win election or to govern the State. These parties can only boast of a bunch of
fanatical and boisterous people who assume that anger can win election and gain
power. But it has never been so. Anger imposes instinctive options that are not
rationally distilled. Such base passions fizzle out when the individual is
sober or encounters truth.
The opposition interest is to derail Delta State people into a
Hobbesian State where life is nasty, brutish and short. First, it is making
frantic efforts to distort the sense of brotherhood that has defined the
political union in the State. Secondly, the parties intend to use the judiciary
to needlessly take Delta State backwards. We pray the judiciary takes the bold
step. No State or country develops by conducting elections every year. Parties
must learn to accept the results of elections like President Jonathan did and
move on.
Delta people have roundly rejected these inconsistent parties and
are satisfied with Senator Ifeanyi Okowa from Delta North Senatorial zone as
Governor. He is a man who has proven to be a reliable manager of men and
materials. The PDP got it right with the right man, from the right place, with
the right name for the right time. So, when next you listen to opposition
chieftain, expect lies and blames which is intended to destroy our polity.
