The obvious selfish trade-off of the Presidency zoned to Southern Nigeria in 2023, for a mere Vice Presidential position by the current governor of Delta State, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa has been condemned, not only across the South of Nigeria but also by the kinsmen of the governor who now refer to him as the biggest betrayer in the entire region.

And in order to ensure that Gov. Okowa does not succeed in his selfish quest, the people of Ika North East LGA, homestead of Okowa, have mobilized in their thousands and joined the All-Progressives Congress, APC, to work for the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu who is from the South and the Delta State APC Governorship flagbearer, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege.

This position was made known on Thursday, December 1, 2022, at Ward 2, Boji-Boji Owa Alero in Ika North East Local Government Area where the Delta State APC ward-to-ward campaign train led by Senator Ovie Omo-Agege berthed to unveil the package the expected new Delta holds for Deltans.

Speaking on behalf of the Ika people, the Ward 2 Boji Boji Owa Alero chairman, Comrade Ekene Kerri noted that it was the turn of Southern Nigeria to produce the next president of the country, adding that, having trusted and voted for Okowa, he betrayed them and the entire region.

“We supported and voted Gov Okowa thinking as our brother he will represent our interest but the person we thought was our brother is our biggest betrayal. He betrayed the entire Southern Nigeria”, he noted.

Kerri however assured that APC is on the ground in Ika land, adding that they have resolved to support the party and all its candidates and reject Okowa and his PDP.

“Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Omo-Agege are the best candidates. They are reliable politicians and we have resolved to support them.

“APC is fully in Ikaland and we are going to vote for all candidates of APC. In 2023 we will reject Okowa and PDP”. Kerri stated.

He further applauded the Governorship candidate, Omo-Agege, pointing out that although he is a Senator representing Delta Central, he has “appointed sons and daughters of Anioma as political aides.”

Earlier, while addressing the mammoth crowd of supporters, the Governorship candidate of the party, Senator Omo-Agege gave a commitment that when he becomes the next governor, his government will usher in an industrial revolution in the state by ensuring that all industries that have become moribund over the years are resuscitated to generate revenue and create employment.

He stated that the plan is part of his economic blueprint to boost business activities in the State.

Omo-Agege, who is the Deputy President of the Nigerian Ninth Senate, also assured the people of Ika nation that an APC-led government in the State would be fair and just to the Ika Nation and other parts of Delta State.

Ika North East ward 2 is the ward of the incumbent governor and Vice-Presidential candidate of the PDP, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa.

Omo-Agege, who also spoke in other wards visited in the Council, promised that his administration would never abandon any part of Owa Kingdom, nor any part of Ika North East if elected as Governor in 2023.

He lamented that despite the promises made by governor Okowa in 2015 to revamp the State economy of the State, seven years after, Deltans are yet to see the fulfilment of such promises.

According to him, his administration would return Ika Land to its pride of place in the economy of the State. That Ika Land was commercial in nature and he would return it to that state.

He, however, clarified that though, he condemned the activities of internet fraudsters, when elected, he would create a tech hub that would harness their potential for positivity by channelling their ingenuity to app development thereby creating employment for our youths.

“I want to begin today by making some clarifications. Clarification number one, I want to assure our brothers, our sisters in Ward 2 Owa-Alero and the entire Ika North East that, contrary to what you have been told, contrary to the rumour they are spreading about, my administration will be fair, just and equitable to the people of Owa and Ika Land.

“If you have received any benefit if any at all, we are happy for you. What you have we will protect for you. Nobody will tell the incoming administration of Ovie Omo-Agege and Friday Osanebi that any project being executed in Ika North East should be abandoned.

“I am saying that if there’s any project it will not be abandoned. Government is continual. Any project commenced by any administration; it behooves on us to complete it. No such project in Owa Kingdom and Ika Nation will be abandoned.

“So, I am assuring our brothers and sisters, fear not, we will be fair, just and equitable to all Deltans. Whatever that is due to the people of Ika North East they will get from my administration.

“Don’t let anybody deceive you. Don’t let anybody sow seed of hatred in your heart against our Party. This is because our people in this current government are the biggest purveyor of hatred. All we want to do is to ensure that the prosperity is for all Deltans and not for only one family”, Omo-Agege stated.

Omo-Agege strongly appealed to the people of Ika North East to overwhelmingly vote for all candidates of the APC in 2023, adding that every vote in the next year’s election would count.
