OKOWA'S EMERGENCE AS PDP GUBER CANDIDATE AN ACT OF GOD - ISHIEKWENE


A PDP Stalwart and former Chairmanship aspirant for Ukwuani Local Government Hon. Basil Ishiekwene has described the emergence of Senator Dr Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa as Delta State PDP Governorship Candidate as an act of God.

Hon. Ishiekwene stated this while speaking to newsmen recently. The PDP stalwart therefore urged all party faithful to rally round Senator Okowa to ensure that the PDP wins the election come February 2014.

"Senator Okowa's emergence as candidate of the party is a welcome development because it goes to show that only credible politicians with massive grassroots support can win elections.

"Senator Okowa has garnered lots of experience from his days as a Secretary to Local Government, Chairman, Commissioner, Secretary to the State Government and now distinguished Senator of the Federal Republic where he has performed excellently well by making good laws especially the recent Health Bill recently signed into law and attracting development projects to Delta North Senatorial District.

"It is my honor and privilege therefore to call on all party faithful especially those who didn't support him before the primaries to shun tribal sentiments and political interests to support this man who has promised prosperity for all Deltans." he said.

It was a primary election and in all elections only one candidate must emerge and Okowa has emerged so let's support him to deliver prosperity to all Deltans.

According to Hon. Ishiekwene, Senator Okowa has long been preparing for the Governorship race and has since been providing job empowerment for all Deltans and not Delta North alone. He described Senator Okowa as a detribalized Deltan that can be relied on to deliver on his promises.
