Former Governor of Delta State, Chief James Ibori has warned against crisis during the 2019 general elections, expressing confidence that Governor Ifeanyi Okowa will lead all the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to victory.

Chief Ibori gave the warning at the flag off of campaign of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at Oghara, Ethiope West local government area of Delta State. 

According to Chief Ibori, "please, in the name of God, don't come to Delta State to cause trouble; this is a democracy, you tell the people what you will do, sell your programmes to the people."

"Anybody that is planning anything that is bad for our state, God will not allow it," the former Governor asserted.

He continued amidst thunderous applause from members of the PDP who literarily took over all available space in the Oghara Township Stadium, "the re-election of Governor Okowa is our challenge; I have no question in my mind that you (Governor Okowa) has done very well, I can say that without equivocation, you have done exceedingly well."

Chief Ibori stated that Governor Okowa is "competent, capable, knowledgeable and have the capacity to govern the state for another four years; you (Governor Okowa) deserve another term, I am indeed very pleased with you, your achievements."

"In your first tenure, you launched your campaign in Oghara and today, you are here to launch your campaign, it means you know your history and as the head of this political family, I declare and decree that you have all it takes to lead this battle, for all the candidates of our party to win in the election, God will continue to guide you, you have humbled yourself, God will uplift you," Chief Ibori added. 

The former Governor noted that the peace of the state was very paramount and as such, the Governor Okowa should be allowed to complete the second term in office in line with the rotation of power that exists in the state.

He said, "we should allow the Anioma people to complete two terms, it is the turn of the Anioma people, don't let them deceive you, as you go into the field, be peaceful, we are peaceful people, sell your programmes to the people."

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...
