You don't still know the politics.

In 2023, he was still a Governor about to hand over. Considering his connection with Atiku then, he has the power.

Now, he is no more a Governor. His influence in 2023 and now is not the same.

In APC currently, do you think he have more influence more than Ned?
Oga are you in Delta state or understand Delta state politics? I just told you what happened in the last APC primaries, where is the influence of Ned during the primaries that he was not able to produce a unit Chairman of his own unit? Okowa and Sheriff are in charge of the the structure either you aligned with them or you sheep out. Please always ask question. What structure will Ned use to contest against Okowa in APC when he has no single person in the executives? Even till now Omo-Agege and Ibori are yet to recovery from the shocked they got during the primaries

Things are not the same now.

They are now in APC.

The influnec you have in PDP can't be the same when you decamp to APC. That applies to both of them.

One will gain influnce while the other is likely to lose his influence.

As it stands, Ned seems to have more influence in APC than them.

As e be say Ned like south east well well, he should go there to contest. We will vote Okowa before him. The insults he has caused us don too much. We are not Igbo people. Ned said he is Igbo, let him contest with his kinsmen.
And to you, Okowa will not pursue the same plan until it is realized?

The earlier those of you who continue to confuse yourselves with your identify begin to know who you are, the better. You cannot change your Igbo identity. If monkey go London come back, na still monkey e be.

Okowa has always maintained that he is an Igbo man from Agbor. Go and read all the news about him. He started that long before he became the Governor of the state. He assumed the Governorship because it was the turn of the Igbos. How do you want to change that?

Above all, it is too late to change the narrative. You probably recently did not hear Akpabio confirm that the next SE state would be Anioma. You probably also did not hear Benjamin Kalu (the deputy speaker), last week advocating for a fusion of Anioma and Anim in Anambra to make Animoma state, with Asaba as the capital.

So whoever you vote for between Okowa and Ned immaterial now. They both pursue the same agenda for Anioma state creation. If Okowa wins, he will only complete the job started by Ned. Some of you naive, believing that Ned will just sit down and watch Okowa take his position.

By the way, if Ken Pela will run on the ADC platform, he will definitely win this time and pursue the same agenda.

Go up come down, na you lose sleep.

His successor that decamped to APC. Do you think he have that influence in APC?

Someone that will be struggling to retain his seat. Because if the election holds free and fair he has more chance of losing than winning.
Firstiy, losing against who?
Secondly, they both left for the APC and based on the power sharing deal, he has the power structure in the State.

Of all defecting Governors to the APC, Akwa Ibom & Oborevwori got the largest deal for obvious reasons.

This clearly shows how little you understand about Nigerian politics. You really think someone with no party structure can defeat the one with the party structure party’s primaries? That’s completely unrealistic. I know you are just catching cruse, Ned won't even dare to contest APC primaries against Okowa.

Don't mind them.

Someone that pushed creation of Anioma state to the current stage is who they underrate.

For their mind Okowa have level in APC more than Ned.

His Anioma State push was for him to be Governor there.
Creating a State will not be easy. I think all the ones we have was by military fiat.
No matter where he defects to, my first thinking is that he can't beat Okowa.
Okowa has the APC state chairman via the governor but I doubt the presidency will trust him over Ned. He has fought against Anioma state albeit unsuccessfully despite presidential support for it. He'll likely be asked to step down.

Is it Ned they will now trust?
What does Ned have that will entice Tinubu?
Is it votes or clout? People who own the structure have decided, Ned must have a super-backer to do the unthinkable.

Okowa has nothing to offer Tinubu either. His performance in the last election has put his clout in serious doubt. He now relies on the governor who is directed by national APC for relevance. "Dying" his efcc case is enough compensation for defection. Tinubu knows giving him senatorial ticket is over ambition. If the presidency valued him as much from the beginning, they would have gotten him on board the Anioma state creation process but the Federal government has continued to support the project despite being on collision course with okowa's political relevance.

If Delta North people get sense, they should allow and support Ned to continue.

Okowa ought to be behind bars.
