… Praises
Esiso
Business magnate, Linus Obi
has thrown his weight behind Delta State Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa,
saying there is really no alternative.
“Okowa reflects the views of Deltans. They will
vote for him in 2019” he said.
Obi in an interview in Lagos
urged Deltans to judge Governor Okowa on the basic of his performance.
He described the All
Progressives Congress (APC), Delta State chapter as a party in disarray.
“A house divided against
itself cannot stand. Election is not decided on social media but among members of the voting public. APC is in
disarray in Delta State. There are about five factions in the state” he said.
Obi, a strong supporter of
Okowa, said it was not easy ruling a state like Delta, most especially because
of the number of ethnic groups, adding that the executive governor is on course
and determined to turn the state around.
He expressed satisfaction
with the quality and progress of work done on various projects in the state.
“Okowa deserves re-election
in 2019. If you go round Delta State, especially Sapele, you will see on-going
and completed projects. He needs second term to complete most of the
programmes”
The leading member of Team
Okowa also praised the chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Delta
State Chapter, Olorogun Kingsley Esiso for shaping democracy in the state,
strengthening the unity of the ruling party and guiding the actions of elected officials.
“Barrister Kingsley Esiso is
a bridge builder and a man of integrity. Olorogun Esiso believes in internal
democracy and fairness. He does not believe in imposition of candidates. His
word is his bond. He is carrying every party member along. The ordinary members
of the party are important as the leaders. He is
creating a sense of unity among members of the PDP in the state” the
business magnate said.
He also praised him for mobilizing potential voters ahead
of 2019, recruiting new members for the party and effectively organizing and
coordinating PDP members in the state.
Obi said the party’s next task was the 2019 elections,
which he said would not be difficult.
“Barrister Kingsley Esiso
will lead the party to victory in 2019. He will insist on the best candidate
for any position. Okowa will defeat anybody nominated by the APC for the 2019
election in the state” he added.
