Uduaghan replies critics, says Olejeme will be governor in 2015

Director General of Olejeme Campaign Organization, Mr. Emmanuel Oritsejolomi Uduaghan Thursday described the leadership of Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF) as focused in vision, efficient in delivery and transparent in official conduct.

He also praised Dr. Ngozi Olejeme for making Nigeria, particularly Delta State proud by her achievements in NSITF, Trustfund Pensions Plc and other institutions.
“Dr. Olejeme occupies a special place in the hearts of the people. Her contributions to human capital development, governance and pension schemes in Nigeria, particularly Delta State are impossible to
estimate, to measure and to quantify” he said.
At a well-attended meeting of leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Asaba, Uduaghan not only praised Dr. Olejeme for setting high standards in pension matters and management of public finances but also accused some politicians and journalists of feeding the public
with cooked and calculated lies. “Some politicians and journalists are just executing a carefully
designed plan to discredit the aspirant and destabilize the campaign
organization to further their selfish ends” Uduaghan said.

He appealed to office and money seeking politicians and journalists to temper ambition and greed with concern for public good and genuine welfare of the people. “Misguided attacks by some politicians, self-acclaimed journalists and their backers will never deter Dr. Olejeme from repositioning NSITF or becoming the next governor of Delta State”.

Uduaghan, who further thanked the people for the confidence reposed on Dr. Olejeme, said the aspirant would continue to work for the good of Nigerians.

Regretting that the country is yet to fully tap her wealth of experience and knowledge, Uduaghan said “We are determined to work assiduously towards installing Dr. Olejeme as the next governor of
Delta State”

He urged Dr. Olejeme to keep up the good works, irrespective of theantics of some detractors who peddle false stories about NSITF.

“In any system, there are always destroyers. Dr. Olejeme should look away from these destroyers and get on with important matters, since they are arrogant and reckless politicians and journalists pursuing their selfish agenda” he added.

Expectations of Deltans will be met by Olejeme, says Uduaghan Chairman of Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund, Dr. Ngozi Olejeme has  the potential and capacity to deliver public goods and services, says Mr. Emmanuel Oritsejolomi Uduaghan.

Uduaghan, Chairman of Olejeme Campaign Organization, who unfolded initiatives aimed at improving the state and the people Tuesday in Warri, said Dr. Olejeme’s vision was an integrated rural and urban development programme, which would include electrification, communication, health care, education, security, roads and job creation.
Poised to excel, Uduaghan told top Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leaders in the state, prominent chiefs, clergymen, women and youth leaders that Dr. Olejeme would not only sustain the tempo of
development in the state but also strive to improve on the present record.

Exuding confidence in Olejeme’s plans for the state and the people, Uduaghan declared: “There will be a revolution in the education sector. Olejeme will take over WAEC fees for both JSS and SSS students throughout the state. She will also build and equip science laboratories as well as good libraries. She will provide text books and exercise books free of charge to students from primary to
secondary levels in the state. She will also address the challenges facing tertiary institutions in the state.

Continuing, he said “Olejeme will embark on small scale industrial projects in all the 25 local government areas of the state. All the state hospitals will be reactivated while new ones will be built where necessary. The hospitals will be well equipped with drugs, stand by generating plants and regular water supply.”
 
Promising to wage war against poverty and unemployment by constantly seeking for ways more jobs could be created for the ever increasing number of the unemployed in the state, Uduaghan said pension arrears crisis would be over in 2015.

“Agreement reached between government and the Joint Negotiation Council, Delta State Chapter will be implemented. Various artisan and craft centres will be opened in all the local government areas with technical instructors for the various artisan trades to keep our women very busy in the rural areas. Markets will be opened in strategic locations while abandoned markets will also be completed.”

“Olejeme will accord the well-deserved courtesy of royal father to traditional rulers. New vehicles will be provided and maintained by government for members of the state traditional council” he said.

Urging Deltans at home and abroad to support her, Uduaghan said, “Dr. Olejeme is qualified educationally, socially and politically to be the next governor of Delta State”
