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.

The primaries was held at Warri Township Stadium, Sapele Township Stadium and Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba, respectively under very tight security, with no record of violence.

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.

Ibori had his way eventually with amori

ityP:
You'd understand soon what we're talking about

Go sleep jooor

Truthisunique2:
shut up

Right now it would be easier if the south in PDP come together and join some few states in north Central from ortom benue, nasarrawa, fct, Niger, Jos,

Atiku would be out of the game

Yours that was shattered by sledgehammer is even worse

Dead brain is the south united? Lol....mumu. Edo and Delta governors are supporting Atiku, udom emmanuel is contesting. So where's the united south? Ozuor... Politicians are concerned about where their interest are best protected not what a nonentity like you thinks on nairaland. I hit dead brains with sledge hammer.

Lordave:
No, they're now easier to control.

Na money dey control delegates. Know this and know peace. It's difficult for you guys to understand because you're outsiders.

ityP:
Oga, Atiku is actually at a disadvantage here. The power now rests on the hands of the governors. Atiku has money to cater for as many delegates as possible.

Una dey make me laff. How many states in Nigeria has pdp governors? Just 12 or 13 and 24 states plus Abuja have no pdp governors. Make una dey think.

Freelancer2020:
It is not only their brain that is dead, even their life too, their only joy is attacking tinubu and yorubas


I'm for osinbajo anyways.

Hatred don chop their brains finish. Lol...

Yusman316:
The Governors mostly control delegates from their individual states, and may not give Atiku or Tinubu access to them. If the plan is to scheme both of them out

My guy I've been in this game for years. Many of us have done business with aspirants different from the ones we were ordered to vote in the primary. We always have a way of getting to whoever we want amongst the aspirants. It's pure business, most times our leaders don't give us half of what the aspirants will give. Lol.....who nor go nor know.

Osibajo2023:
na u be mumu, it won't be easy to buy over these calibers of delegates, ex-president, ex- governors, etc. One go just waste his money because it is putting salt in a ocean.

This is why I call you people ignorant fools. Under the new law,the category of people you mentioned are called statutory delegates that have been shut out from voting in the convention. Una too dull.......fvck off my mention.

Aliou007:
I come in peace brother. Buying the delegates sef dey o. But PMB’s plan is to assist the Igbos win the coming elections. If you understand my point.

He'll need to convince the party that it's politically safe to take the ticket to the south east. Because if pdp doesn't go southeast then the Apc will lose woefully.

Truthisunique2:
shut up

Right now it would be easier if the south in PDP come together and join some few states in north Central from ortom benue, nasarrawa, fct, Niger, Jos,

Atiku would be out of the game

Mumu.........ur brain is so empty.

PrinceOfLagos:
APC is going for consensus , know this and know peace

Clown! Go sleep u need brain reboot

Truthisunique2:
buhari didn't just cripple the drug lord, but he has also crippled atiefku by reducing PDP delegates to 800

Masterstroke from the so called dullard who allows everyone makes noise on TVC and silence everyone with actions

And it didn't done on your tiny brain that Atiku will be happier buying more than half of the 800 since they're now fewer? Una brain truly dead sha....

PrinceOfLagos:
Buhari is shooting from all cylinders and the mission s to cripple every Tinubu chances of bribing and begging his way to become APC flag bearer for 2023

Buhari is giving to Tinubu what Tinubu gave to ambode in 2019 and I'm so loving it.

It is better for a northerner to retain presidency than for Tinubu to have it..

I first know say ur brain dey malfunction. Isn't it easier to buy over the delegates since they're now fewer? Mumu.....

nairavsdollars:
it is that fake news that will eventually kill you. i read the same in Vanguard now

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/05/2023-presidency-lawan-to-pick-nomination-forms-declare-this-week/

Family of nobodies. Fake news kill your entire generation.

DownChelsea:
TIBUBU will be humiliated.

Go sleep

sapele914:
Political Dullard, who sought your opinion?

Certified dunce who called you into my mention.?

aarony00:
Omo I feel for you because las las na your life u tk dey play kalo kalo with BAT wey u dey carry for Head so SMH

Cry and die

Sheuns:
When Tinubu won AD ticket in 1998, what political base did he have?

You obviously don't know anything about Nigeria politics. Go and ask your elders at home, they'll tell you that Tinubu was already a senator of the federal republic of Nigeria as far back as 1992. He was also one of the founding fathers of AD at the return of democracy in 98/99. He was one of the founders of NADECO that battled the military and returned Nigeria to democracy. Kiddo Tinubu don tay for game oooooo

Omooba77:
Ok sir.... May you never remain in delusion...

Ok sir may you never be consumed by ignorance.

MikoB:
I would have loved to keep quite, especially when I saw the post is from someone like you, you are the emotional person here, thinking that a professor and a SAN for that matter would not have done his assignment before declaring that shows how naive some people can be. Like you said we should wait till primaries, even before the primary, you will start seeing what I have seen many months ago.

Una dey mk me laff oooooo. Professor of law is not professor of politics. He'll be thoroughly schooled bro.

I think the op was just objective. He said the bitter truth.

Honestly I don't know how the VP will get the votes to emerge as APC presidential candidate. He doesn't have any political base. He has not built enough political ties across Nigeria yet for this kind of race. Nor be small pikin race oo.

Omooba77:
Learn to follow the right people sir....Odaro....

Follow who know road sir. Bye!

Omooba77:
If you get the level of our achievements, you will thank God for His grace.....

Go sleep.....achievers don't make noise.

Omooba77:
You are still a kid when Tinubu, Fayemi ran away from Abacha bullets, only Beko, Shehu Sani, Sowore and Co were man enough. When we were fighting the junta as undergraduate 93-98, you were still wearing pants. Learn not to disgrace your parents.....

Kiddo keep quiet and go do your homework. Stop disgracing your family name on nairaland.

DownChelsea:
But both will get more than Tibubu.
And that's a win for Nigeria

Tinubu is not in the class of those kids. Just wait and see the results of the primary.

Ficient:
I forgive you

I forgive you too

Ficient:
Eternal sexx slave to the devil, he will rape your anus for eternity

Walking corpse

And he refused to meet with obaseki. Lol....

Omooba77:
The problem with most of you political urchins is that you lack basic home training. You don't tell people sharap, if you have been well brought up and accepted the training in a public space like this.....

Sharap!
Kids like you should be busy with their books not sleeping on nairaland.

Obamaofusa:
I know.Cheating is allowed with number of local govts..

Absolutely!
I think a state like Lagos should have more local government. Constitutionally recognized LGAs.

Great2017:
But the total is not 7800

There are statutory delegates and three elected delegates per state.
It'll be around 8000 eventually.

Omooba77:
BAT we get enough handkerchiefs to wipe away tears....

Sharap!
Set awon anointing oil.
Una go dey alright las las.
