AS politicians strategise and group up ahead of 2023, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State said only God would determine his successor and not man, insisting that he would never take the place of God in deciding who succeeds him.

Okowa, during a thanksgiving service at the Government House Chapel, Asaba, for the blessings of God upon him, his family and the state in 2021 and greater divine attention on them and the state in 2022, urged Deltans to pray for him to finish strong


He said: “Finishing strong is about being able to reach out to the people to lay the foundation that people can build upon and I urge Deltans to pray for the will of God to be done in the state ahead of the 2023 governorship election.”


Cautioning political stakeholders on the need to concentrate on governance and not be distracted ahead of the 2023 general elections, he said: “Let us approach the next few months with oneness of love. Towards the end of every administration, there are usually distractions here and there.


“We are not stopping people from playing politics but we need to realise that there is a purpose and we must remain loyal and committed to governance until May 29, 2023.“This is a year of politics and as politicians we cannot avoid it, pray with us, pray for us and pray for the state.
