Diden,amori Win Pdp Senatorial Primaries In Delta by garfield1: 11:17am On May 24, 2022 |
Evangelist Michael Diden and Chief Ighoyota Amori were, on Monday, declared winners of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) primaries for Delta South and Central senatorial districts. Amori, a court-ousted Senator in 2015, who polled 142, defeated his closest rival, Chief John Nani, a former Commissioner in Delta State who scored 123, to emerge the candidate of the party for Delta Central. In Delta South, Evang. Diden polled 176 to defeat Daniel Reyenieju, Othihiwa Ayodele, Kent Omatsone scored 49, 46 and 2 respectively. Reyeineju was a former member of the House of Representatives, and Omatsone, a former Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly. PDP Delta North Senatorial District primary, which went peacefully like others, saw popular billionaire, Ned Nwoko, who was a former House Representatives member, grabbing the ticket. Nwoko polled 242 votes to defeat his only rival, Paul Osaji, who scored 67.

Responding to the victory, Diden said that the overwhelming votes were a demonstration of the confidence the electorates had in him. “It is a very good victory, the electorates assured me that they want me to represent them at the Senate. You could see that the election was peaceful and the votes overwhelming. “The electorate gave me a nickname, ‘the peoples’ messenger’ and I assured them that I will deliver the messages. “I have contested an election before and lost. I congratulated the winner, so today I also congratulate the losers, today is not their turn,” he said. The Senate aspirant said that he would not be carried away by the victory, describing it as just a friendly football match. “Today is just like a friendly match, the general election is going to be the knockout match. Anybody that comes from other parties in Delta South to contest for the senatorial seat will be knocked out,” he said. The former DESOPADEC chairman said that the electorates had assured him of their total support saying that “any day, and anytime, the electorates are for me”. Meanwhile, a mild drama played out at the Warri Township Stadium venue of the PDP primary for Delta Senatorial District, the Returning Officer and Commissioner for Information, Mr Charles Aniagwu, as well as journalists from the state, was initially barred from gaining access to the stadium by some overzealous security men until reason prevailed through Governor Ifeanyi Okowa. https://tribuneonlineng.com/diden-amori-win-pdp-delta-south-north-senatorial-primaries/ Cc mynd44 Kwanza Guzel Chukel Fergie001 Politico Kyase Helinues Tiinubuadvicate Warriaproko Fratermathy Efewwestern Ogidigbodigbo Jaxxy Jrusky Tutudesz 1 Like |

garfield1: It's so sad no credible Isoko candidate vied for a Senate seat. A major ethnic group in that district being systematically sidelined. Ayodele seems to be an interesting candidate, well well well, the electorates have decided. Also, Amori will have it tough in Delta Central. Goodluck to all of them. 1 Like 1 Share |

garfield1: Urhobo chances of winning Delta South is very slim. Remember people vote across ethnic lines. An Isoko candidate would have given Diden a run for his money. And you are wrong. Power isn't given. It's taken, when Diden is done, the Ijaws might likely takeover. Dafinone's family are very influential in Delta Central, the entire Okpe will swing to him and Omo-agege will deliver Ughelli South and North. Ethiope west and Uvwie will be a big challenge to him. But he has a good headstart nevertheless. 1 Like |
