DELTA State Governor and vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, has urged the people of the state and Nigerians in general to vote for Atiku Abubakar for rescue and rebuilding of the country and Sheriff Oborevwori as governor in the February 26 and March 11 presidential and governorship elections, respectively.
Speaking yesterday at the party’s campaign at Bomadi and Warri North Local Councils, Okowa said only the PDP has the right experience to rebuild the economy and stop the pervasive insecurity and economic crisis across the country, noting: “I appeal to you all not to use anger to throw away your votes; cast your votes for the PDP to rescue and rebuild this country.
“The PDP has the most qualified hands to remedy the situation we are going through in this country.”
At Koko, headquarters of Warri North Local Council, the governor assured the people of Gbokodor that his administration would start the electricity project in the area, adding that that if his administration was unable to complete the project, the incoming administration of Sheriff Oborevwori, would, by the grace of God, bring it to completion.
He commended his predecessor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, for his role in reconciling members of the party, saying he was glad to note that peace had returned to the party in the area.
While thanking leaders, youths and women for their patriotic support to the PDP over the years, Okowa urged them to sustain their support to the party, stressing: “The PDP is coming to rescue the country. We have the right experience to rebuild the nation’s economy and stop the pervasive insecurity and economic crisis across the country occasioned by the APC-led Federal Government.”
Senator representing Delta South at the National Assembly, Senator James Manager, thanked the people for the opportunity to serve them in the last 20 years, urging them the people of Bomadi Council to vote for the PDP, as the party had recorded significant progress in the area.

“I know the party is growing in leaps and bounds and I must put it on record that there has been remarkable and tremendous improvement in this area since PDP came in 1999 even though we would have loved it to be better than it is now.
“My appearance here today is not just symbolic, but I have to be here to identify with my people. It is PDP all the way and I appeal to all those aggrieved to calm down as we remain one family,” he stated.
Earlier, Uduaghan said the people of Warri North were very happy to host the last rally ahead of the general elections, thanking God for making it possible for Okowa to visit the council for the last lap of the state campaign rally in style and assuring that the council would reciprocate their coming.
Oborevwori thanked the people for their support over the years, urging them to vote all PDP candidates as the party was desirous to rescue and rebuild the country, assuring that his M.O.R.E Agenda would equitably develop all parts of the state from where the Okowa administration would stop.
State Chairman of the party, Chief Kingsley Esiso, Director General of the Campaign Council, Chief Funkekeme Solomon and top party officials attended the rallies.
