Dr Isaac Akpoveta, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and supporter of former governorship aspirant, Olorogun David Edevbie, alongside his teeming supporters have declared their unalloyed support for the governorship candidate of PDP, Sheriff Oborevwori.
Speaking recently at the political consultation ceremony at the private residence of Akpoveta in Ufuoma, Ughelli North Local Government Area of the state, the Governorship candidate, Sheriff Oborevwori said PDP is one big and united family.
He promised that if voted into power as governor on March 11, he would constitute an all-inclusive government wherein stakeholders and Deltans will have positive inputs as partners in progress for good governance.
Oborevwori described Akpoveta as a brother, friend and a worthy party man whose wealth of experience is needed in the present dispensation, urging him to come on board the PDP campaign train in the state.
He assured that his agenda; meaningful development, opportunity for all Deltans, realistic reforms and enhanced peace and security (M.O.R.E), will advance Delta from where the incumbent governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa, will stop on May 29, to take up higher office as Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, by the grace of God
Oborevwori noted that governor Okowa administration has done well by creating jobs and wealth for Deltans, built roads and durable infrastructure, built schools and established additional three Universities and many more accomplishments.
He promise to build on the numerous achievements of governor Okowa, if elected on March 11, this year, and thanked Dr Isaac Akpoveta and his teeming supporters for throwing their political weight behind his candidacy and the party, PDP.
In the same vein, the Senatorial candidate of PDP in Delta Central Senatorial District, Ighoyota Amori, commended Akpoveta for his political maturity and unblemished loyalty to the party.
Amori assured that he would ensure quality representation if elected on 25th February, describing Akpoveta as a reliable and dependable politician, and an illustrious son of Urhobo nation.
Earlier in his welcome address, Dr. Akpoveta said it became necessary for his political structure to support the candidacy of Oborevwori, in line with the principles of party politics in constitutional democracy, requiring all stakeholders and aspirants to collapse political structures in support of candidates after party primaries.
He commended Oborevwori for his humility, sense of humour and unblemished integrity in the midst of multifaceted political crisis, noting that the Delta PDP governorship candidate will surely do well as governor.
Akpoveta urged all eligible voters in Delta State to vote Atiku-Okowa for President, Sheriff-Onyeme for Governor and all candidates of the PDP in the forthcoming general elections.
Some PDP candidates in Delta Central Senatorial District present at the consultation visit include; Hon Hon Solomon Awhinawhi, Hon Chief Solomon Ighrakpata, Onoriode Agofure, and Jimmy Idiovwa among other dignitaries.
