A member of the House of Representatives, Farah Dagogo, that was prosecuted by the Rivers State Government this year for allegedly promoting cultism in the state, has declared support for the Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, and his running mate, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State.

Farah Dagogo who represents Degema/ Bonny Federal Constituency said a 10-million-man-march for Atiku and Okowa will be held in the coming days across the Niger Delta States to prove to naysayers that the region is for the PDP.

Dagogo in a statement by his Media Aide, Ibrahim Lawal, dismissed fears of protest votes from the region against the PDP as a result of the party’s presidential primary saying “the Niger Delta has been a traditional stronghold of the PDP from 1999 till date and 2023 will not be an exception”.

He said the people of the Niger Delta remember and hold the PDP in awe as the only party that ensured the region produced the President of the country through Goodluck Jonathan.

“Let no one be deceived; conducting elections in Nigeria has metamorphosed, the voting power is with the people. No one can order anyone around, on who to vote or not, no matter how highly placed, because the people are the deciders with their PVCs and votes.

“PDP has been true and fair to our people. It was by the means of this party that we clinched the President’s seat in this country through our son, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, among several other benefits.

“We are at an advanced stage in plans for a ten million man march for Atiku and Okowa across the States of the Niger Delta, particularly Rivers State. We have spoken with the people, those that will vote, the real voters with PVCs, not political sycophants, and we have been able to galvanise a lot of them. In the coming days, we will take over the streets of the Niger Delta states and publicly demonstrate that support. That will also prove to the naysayers that the region is for PDP.”

He said Atiku will win and it will be in the interest of those who do not want to be left behind to board or be cast in the dustbin of political history.

There has been an uneasy calm in the PDP, occasioned by the frosty relationship between Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State and the former Vice President Atiku Abubakar who both took part in the party’s presidential primary in May, which was won by Atiku.

Farah Dagogo who is declaring support for Atiku was in April declared wanted by Governor Nyesom Wike for allegedly sponsoring a group of cultists to attack the state secretariat of the PDP in Port Harcourt, during the screening of some legislative aspirants for the party’s primaries.

The Federal Lawmaker who at the time was a governorship aspirant of the PDP in Rivers State was arrested about four days after he was declared wanted at the South-South Zonal office of the PDP in Port Harcourt where he had gone to participate in the screening of Governorship Aspirants from the zone.

He was, however, granted bail to the tune of 20 million naira by a high court in Port Harcourt, after about a month of a twisted and dramatic trial.

People are now abusing the word "one million".... anyway I don't blame them, they are very sure idle youths in the streets will always honor their nonesense march

Pitopi people are fantasizing on how votes will be divided by the strong opposition partiesin their weak zone (North) .
Whereas as usual they're not looking inward how their neighbour the SS will shred votes among the major party.

The fact remains that both minorities in the South & North tends to play politics in similar fashion. Party loyalty & money politics play huge role in NC & SS.

Atiku should be praying for 25% votes in Rivers State, which is highly impossible..
Wike, the only person that could have save him from Obidients onslaught in the state is no longer with him.

Before someone will start saying that Wike will use Grassroot Development Initiative (GDI) to make Tinibu win Rivers. I am a registered member of GDI but Obi is my choice, same thing applies to many others..

Wike will come for his head soon

This young man is embarking on a journey he may feel right but would cause him regrets in years to come.

Strategic positioning. Guy is playing the long game in which if Wike happens to leave the party, he can go up in levels and become more significant

River State and it's politicians are very unique.
I am quite sure your 10 million March will not hold in Rivers State.
Where Wike is still the governor.

This guy should remember that Wike is still very much around

This is democracy, support who ever you'd heart choose..

How? Explain
The worst that can happen in all these little baby wike is doing is that pdp will lose 2023 presidential election and tell me how that even benefit wike himself?

Atiku na regular INEC customer when it’s comes to Presidential elections.

As it stands, Obi is strategically positioned to whittle Atiku's southern votes & Atiku himself is not a dominant candidate in the North.

Northern votes will be shared amongst Obi, Atifku, Tifnubu & Kwankwaso

10 million man march. I laugh in Swahili. They will just open their mouth waaaa and spew what they can't do.

The term "million march" being abused by Nigerians.

After this now, one agbado adherent will say he wants to organize 1billion man march for his Emilokan master without knowing that our population is not up to that number

How? Explain

Time is your teacher. Patience

10 million from where? .......Besides....if the goal is to fill stadium to listen to candidates...well it's achievable but if it's to vote (a completely different objective) then you are only entitled to your vote...it will amaze you that your household will be evenly divided across APC, PDP, LP, etc. in the election day

Politicians should take note of bogus promises

If you could inspire 10m people to march, you would be contesting for president today...

No be only 10 million march na 100billion march


Them go just dey call figures as if people re that jobless

Face corruption charges like a man in court, Farah Dagogo went straight to Pondei’s playbook and started forming fainting.

Less than two months later, that same neega has the strength to be organizing a hundred gazzilion million man march across the Niger Delta States!

Many of these stomach infrastructure politicians will fade into oblivion by the time PO takes over in 2023, make our problems for dis country dey reduce small by small!

10 or 50 million, it won’t stop or deter the impending victory of His Excellence, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Atiku and PDP need to face square reality, so as not to replicate the wasteful spending that occurred in 2015, with nothing to show for it.

Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is an unstoppable train that will crush anything that stands on its way. It’s stopping terminal is Aso-rock.

Peter Pandora Obituary's supporters in the mud again

Teach your children to Pray so that whenever their hearts feel heavy, they can run to God and not to the World.

No be Only 10 Million Man March
Na 10 Million Cultist Members March,
God Will Disgrace All of Them

Peter Pandora Obituary's supporters in the mud again

Don't sit in Jads and be yawning bukutum.
This coming Saturday, Obidients will test the microphone.

This Are the Kind of Supporters Expected At the March

Kikikiki

Wike is a sinking man. If PDP wins without him, he’ll go into oblivion. If he aligns with APC to win, he will be dumped like Amaechi…Wike has no political value beyond May 29,2023
