Atiku Abubakar and Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, the party’s presidential standard bearers, have been hailed as providing Nigerians with newfound hope by Chief Emman Amgbaduba, chairman of the Delta State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Campaign Council’s media and publicity committee.
Amgbaduba, the commissioner for oil and gas in Delta State, made the comments in a statement on Monday in Asaba in response to Governor Okowa’s outstanding performance at the Arise News Presidential Town Hall Series in Abuja.
He asserted that Okowa’s straightforward and didactic explanations on the subject of security and economy demonstrate his sincere comprehension of the problems affecting the country’s security and economic development.
He urged Nigerians, in particular Deltans, to back the Atiku-Okowa PDP ticket, which is well-equipped to handle the mission of saving, resetting, and reconstructing the country.
“Yesterday Nigerians watched with awe as our Vice Presidential candidate and Governor of Delta, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa presented a well- articulated roadmap to the resolving the security and economic challenges bedeviling our nation to the satisfaction of Nigerians.
“As Deltans and party faithful we couldn’t have been more proud to be associated with him as our leader and pathfinder.
“He has indeed shown that he is a President-in-waiting and I therefore call on Nigerians and all Deltans to support the PDP ticket of Atiku-Okowa for it remains the surest hope to rescue, reset and rebuild Nigeria from where the inept APC have led us to,”
The Oil and Gas Commissioner urged the people of the state to ensure they stay with the issues and avoid mudslinging as the campaigns commences across Delta on Monday November 7.
“As we commence our ward-to-ward campaigns simultaneously across the three senatorial districts today, the message is simple go out there and convince Deltans to identify with the PDP as it is the only party prepared to change the narrative for the nation.
“Our Gubernatorial Candidate Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, his running mate Chief Monday Onyeme and other candidates of our party are determined to do more for Deltans when elected,” he stated.
