It is very visible that the support given to a political party by persons or party is not in the interest of the masses but for selfish gain and personal interest. Shame to our politicians.

When he dey always open mouth for ground

This Saharareporters should go and write about APC States

In fact it should give us details of what transpired in Rivers State gubernatorial election.... Where the AAC candidate who pasted no poster, no rally, no campaign, no visibility is claiming to have flawlessly won the incumbent governor.

I believe sowore has been in cahoots with the APC hence his refusal to publish the truth is not surprising

sowore was after money to inject into his dying sahara. He got over 150m during the last election. He no send

Thieves everywhere. Weldon Okowa don't give them any penny.

If Lagos is a Slum, then what should we call Delta State?

Good for them.
How will they make an agreement with the PDP when they knew that, the PDP has no Integrity. Next time, do your deal with the APC.

Haha

Revolt In Delta As Okowa Refuses To 'Settle' Governorship Candidates Who Adopted Him As Agreed.

"We the candidates of the opposition parties in Delta State reached a compromise with Governor Okowa through the office of the SSG and a few other government officials to work for Okowa's reelection with a settlement package."

Governorship candidates of opposition political parties in Delta State, under the umbrella of the Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP) and the Inter Party Advisory Council (IPAC), are lamenting the “wicked and unnecessary" delay in settling them for the roles they played in ensuring the reelection of Ifeanyi Okowa in the just concluded March, 9 governorship and house of Assembly elections.

SaharaReporters reliably gathered that a few days to the March, 9, 2019 governorship and house of assembly elections, CUPP and IPAC, through the office of the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), reached an agreement with Okowa to work for his reelection and were guaranteed a payment running into several millions of naira.

Lamenting the "deliberate act" by Ovie Agas, the SSG, to frustrate the release of the money, a governorship candidate of one of the opposition political parties, who preferred not to be named, said: "We the candidates of the opposition parties in Delta State reached a compromise with Governor Okowa through the office of the SSG and a few other government officials to work for Okowa's reelection with a settlement package.

"You know our parties do not have weight like the PDP and APC, and decided during one of our meetings in CUPP and IPAC to have governorship candidates we can use in negotiating for some benefits with Governor Okowa, which we know has the ‘knife and the yam’ as far as the state treasury is concerned. But to our greatest surprise and disappointment, after all the agreements reached and elections concluded, and Okowa declared winner, the SSG is frustrating all the efforts to get our settlements as agreed."

Chairman of one of the opposition parties in the state, who also doubles as his party's governorship candidate, also preferring not to be named, confided in our correspondent that the whole idea of the opposition parties to float governorship candidates was their "settlement".

"Actually, the idea for the floating of the governorship candidates was mooted by the state chairman of Inter Party Advisory Council (IPAC), Fred Obi, and the newly appointed Special Assistant to the Governor on Inter Party Relations, Efe Tobor, who doubles as state chairman of (CUPP) in collaboration with the Senior Special Adviser on Political Matters to the Governor, Festus Ochonogor. Obi and Ochonogor and the SSG have always hijacked money meant for opposition political parties in the state, especially grants.

"The SSG, Ovie Agas, wants to play a fast one on us, but we shall resist his antics with the last drop of our blood. We are supposed to get our settlements this week, but Agas is trying to play a dirty fast one on us. For some days now, the office of the SSG in Asaba has turned to Mecca by the members of political parties, especially the opposition. They have besieged the office for collection of the bargain reached with the state government for the reelection of Governor Okowa and as we talk, it seems we have been deceived."

A few days after the elections, the opposition parties, under the umbrella of IPAC, addressed a press briefing in Asaba, where they said “the governorship election was free and fair and a true reflection of the will of the people”.

Meanwhile, a few days after the election, in a reaction to the Okowa’s victory, Tobor stated that opposition political parties in the state were satisfied with the outcome. He said 39 political parties in the state adopted Okowa, because the political parties believe in equity in the rotation of the governorship positions among the three senatorial districts of the state. He, however, appealed to Okowa to carry members of the opposition political parties along in the scheme of things.

Calls and messages put across to Agas, as well as Obi and Tobor, were not responded to at the time of filing this report. However, a political associate tof the SSG confided in our correspondent that there is conflict between the SSG and the governorship candidates over the issue.

POLITICIANS IN NIGERIA ARE SHAMELESS BUNCH OF PEOPLE.

They want settlement at the expense of fighting for government to meet the social needs of their own people.

I knew things like this happen, but the utter lack of shame to say this openly makes me wonder

More reason why INEC should de-list all this mushroom parties causing confusion and making electioneering cumbersome.

Delta State has gotten a refined gentleman as governor. Thanks.

How does translate to growth and development of delta state.

Refined gentleman is now another word for dumb and clueless.

Please pass this information to your ipob villagers to discourage them from coming to Lagos. It's a slum and we are tired of receiving ipob refugees.
