Expected, This should have been on fp a long time ago lalasticlala please

Congrats to the man of the people, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa. Now it is time to show that useless Uduaghan how to properly govern a state.

In addition:
Okowa is from my hometown of Agbor and I have followed his political development from the time he was commissioner for health under the Ibori administration to the present period where he is now Governor elect. I know him to be a very intelligent man with very sound policies. He was very vocal in the 7th senate and sponsored some well articulated bills. He has all it takes to succeed as the governor of delta state, given that he has a lot of experience in government at the state level.
However, for him to have any taste of success, he must eliminate or significantly reduce the power of the cabal holding the state by the jugular and ensure that widespread corruption and capital leakages in the government are reduced to the barest minimum.
He should also have people friendly policies, because humility is not one of his strongest points.

This was expected and is coming late, front page lalasticlala

Delta people made their choice. they don't need your change

Ok---looks humble, can he just decamp to APC..this is our material
PDP does not deserve this CHARACTER Fayose, Mimiko, Akpabio, Wike comes to mind

Home of Rigging..
We hail them.

Hay Pee Cee came third just like in my state.
Outright rejection!
They can flaunt their powers in the west and the north, but SS/SE is a "no APC zone".
As for that frog-eyed crook in Edo, we're coming for you.

k

Please how is it related to ibori or oduaghan cos I learnt they always rotate it within family

.

Good news for some people I know in the state

Cool.
On a totally different note, quiet looking people are usually the most dangerous

highest rigger. DELTA

He never won, though he bought the votes of the electorates with 1000 Naira each But that doesn't make him a winner. The PDP in Delta state is known for her rigging tactics. Ogboru still remain the man of the people.

Tribunal calling!

Thank God for him But the election was rigged sha. I was a witness.

Good to see that a Delta-Igbo has finally become Governor of Delta State.

he is from the IBORI cartel
