A word from Governor Ifeanyi Okowa is like a word from God, former Minister of State for Education, Education and governorship aspirant in Delta State, Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi, said weekend as he continued in his mobilization for support to succeed the governor.

Gbagi who spoke when he visited the chairman of the state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Olorogun Kingsley Esiso in his base in Sapele also assured that the next governor of the state would come from Delta Central.

“For the first time since 1999 until date we have a governor whose word is like a word from God, I have had occasions to meet with all the governors in Delta state since 1999 till date, I say it without mincing words that Okowa is honest, which is the reason why you see that I am prepared, I trust that at the appropriate time, the governor will be straightforward in his dealings because the governor means well for the people of the state.”

Gbagi said as the oldest member of the party seeking to run for its governorship ticket, ”I have washed my hands clean and gotten a lot of machinery in place and to assure you, I am prepared for this onslaught in 2023.”

“What I did first as I intend to partnership with youths was to carry out a youth movement across the entire state, today I have a data base of what it takes to win election in the state

While urging fellow Urhobo to seek the collaboration of other ethnic groups in their bid to get the governorship in 2023 against the background of assertions by the governor that there was no cast agreement on zoning, he said:

“There had been in the recent past some agitations, some comments, we as people from Central even though governorship will come to us in the Central in 2023 without doubt, it is our responsibility to partner with all the tribes and all the three senatorial districts.”

”To make comments that will infuriate or bring agitation to the polity of the state makes no meaning, I am a founding member of the PDP in the state and if I say it, I am saying it authoritatively and when that time comes, the boys shall be separated the from the men, ” he said

Olorogun Esiso, in his response said that he would serve as an unbiased umpire saying he would neither support Gbagi nor his rivals: “Olorogun Gbagi has the right to aspire so is everyone too, I want to say it is very worthy of you to aspire to that exalted office, as chairman PDP Delta, I can tell you that come 2023 there will be no imposition, the governorship candidate of PDP and other positions will selected through a very free and a very fair process in what you know as primaries”

”Gbagi should start talking to Deltans, he should know that he has other brothers and sisters who are also aspiring for that position. In PDP we are a huge family so anyone that finally emerged from the primaries, that is who I will support.”
