“All we are saying is that Atiku/Okowa, Oborevwori/Onyeme, and other PDP candidates will be elected in 2023. We have agreed and we will work to achieve that.”

Also speaking, Ogbueshi Ejiofor Onyia, extolled the achievements of the party since its inception, especially in the State Capital, which he said had been transformed into an enviable city since the assumption of office of this administration.

He used the opportunity to express his gratitude and that of the people of Asaba on the Koka Interchange, which he said had given the State capital a new look. He assured the party of total support in the next election from the voters in the Local Government.

“Your Excellency, Oshimili South is very proud of you. We will continue to support you and the PDP.”

“I want to say that the PDP in Oshimili South and the people are very proud of the Koka Interchange, which you had done, under one year. We will continue to serve, and work with you and work with the incoming Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori.”

On his part, the former State Chairman of the party, Chief Edwin Uzor confirmed that the party had done very much in Oshimili South, and the voters had agreed to continue with the party, as their only choice. He, however, appealed to those who are not happy that projects in their areas had not been completed or touched to calm down as the next Government will look into those issues, as Government is a continuum.

“I have to say that it’s a clear issue, and settled that the party and Governor Ifeanyi Okowa had done very very well in Delta State, especially in Oshimili South. And the voters here have agreed that they have no other choice, but to vote for the PDP to continue with the good works of the party.

“On the issue of uncompleted projects or those that were not touched, I urge our people, those who are angry, to calm down, and believe that what this administration had not done, the ones that they had completed, and ones they had not touched the incoming administration will handle it. They will be attendant and accommodative of continuity. I plead with everybody to be calm for us to join hands to deliver all our candidates in Oshimili South. He said.

On why the voters in Oshimili South should reelect the candidates of the PDP in the next election, a member of the Arewa community in the area, Mr. Garuba Shehu said the party had a clear agenda for Nigeria, as it had delivered on its promises since inception.

He said that in Delta State, the party had done very well in many areas, especially in roads, Schools, health, youth and women empowerment, security of lives, and properties. Emphasising that the basic needs of the people are being met by the PDP in Delta State, and it was so before 2015, when the party held sway at the national level.

Mr. Shehu, affirmed that the PDP Government under Senator Ifeanyi Okowa had worked very much on the security in the State, and the fear of robbery, and other criminal activities had reduced.

“The PDP has a clear vision of what it wants for Nigerians. And that is why we want to vote for the party. Before 2015, when the party was at the Federal, things were not that difficult, but today, we cannot afford many basic things of living.”

“The party keeps to its promises. We can see this in Delta State, Oshimili South to be precise. Where the party, had implemented policies that had improved the living conditions of the people. The insecurity that used to be a thing of fear had been tackled. We can now sleep without fear.”

“With PDP at the Federal level, having Atiku Abubakar – Ifeanyi Okowa will be a thing of joy to us. Atiku is a good man, so also is Okowa. If we have them at Abuja in 2023, we are assured of a better Nigeria.” He stated.

Meanwhile, the State Campaign Director, Rt. Hon. Funkekeme Solomon, had affirmed that the party in the State is working to have a better Nigeria, and continue with the dividend of Government presence in Delta State.

He affirmed that the party had done well in the area of provision of basic amenities in the State, and voting for the party in the election will be to continue from where the Government of Senator Ifeanyi Okowa had stopped, and to rescue Nigeria from the hunger and pains of the All Progressives Congress, APC Government.

“PDP in Delta State had shown the capacity to lead and develop the vital needs of our people. We all can see the evidence of our party in the State, and we want that to continue.

“We had done well. And this is the reason you have to vote for Sheriff Oborevwori in 2023, to continue where our dear Governor and Vice-Presidential Candidate will stop. For a better Nigeria, we must vote for the ticket of Atiku Abubakar/Ifeanyi Okowa for us to rescue and reset Nigeria.”

He described the party’s Governorship Candidate as a grassroots man, who is accessible, and had agreed to advance the course of human, and infrastructure development of the State.
