Author: By Spence Idighiri
The Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) have sent a clear warning signal to other political parties,
especially the Democratic Peoples Party (DPP) and the newly registered All
Progressives Congress (APC) over their seriousness towards the forth coming by-
election to fill the vacant seat of Delta Central Senatorial District which
resulted as a result of the demise of the former occupant, Late Senator Pius
Akpor Ewherido.
The message came from no
other than the number one citizen of the State, Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan who
stated in clear terms that the ruling party must win the forth coming by-
election even as he disclosed that he has not anointed anybody for the
election.
Governor Uduaghan who
stated this while addressing party faithful at the Government House, Asaba,
however said that the dream can only be realized if the party featured a
popular and generally acceptable candidate.
He said, “I have not
anointed anybody for the forth coming by- election in Delta Central. People are
only using my name. But we must get it this time around. And this means
everybody must work hard to present a popular and generally acceptable candidate
for the election. We must complete the circle”, Uduaghan disclosed.
Governor Uduaghan who said
plans are already at advanced stage to conduct local government election in the
state, also informed the gathering that the list for appointments into Boards
of Parastatals and Agencies was ready and would be released within the next two
weeks.
Still on empowerment, he
said the administration have concluded plans to increase the number of
beneficiaries of the Local Government Women and Youth Empowerment Development
Committee to something in the neighbourhood of 20 per LGA.
