“We will buy the nomination form for
the Governor, we will start saving, when the time comes, we will buy the form,
visit the Governor and present the form to him, do the follow up by campaigning
for the Governor till after the elections,” Hon. Godspower Asiuwhu, coordinator
of the group said.
He continued, ‘the communication
gadgets are for us to let the world know what the Governor is doing, what he
has done and why he should be voted for overwhelmingly in the 2019 elections.”
“By buying the nomination form, it
shows that this project is our project and if it is our project, we should work
to achieve desired results,” Hon. Asiuwhu asserted and thanked members of the
coalition for their commitment to project the programmes of Governor Okowa's
administration .
The Chief Press Secretary to the
Governor of Delta State, Mr Charles Aniagwu who bagged award with the
Executive Assistant to Governor Okowa on Orientation, Barr. Eugene Uzum for
their efforts in information management of Governor Okowa's activities, noted
that Governor Okowa was elected in 2015 because of his track record as a
Senator and other positions he held in the past but, “in 2019, the projects he
has executed across all the local government areas of Delta State will earn him
a second term.”
Mr Aniagwu who listed some of the
programmes and projects executed by Governor Okowa's administration said, “the
Governor has more than enough track record as a Governor to be re-elected,
marketing Governor Okowa is not going to be a Herculean task, he will run on
the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the 2019 election will not
be about money, it is going to be about performance and our Governor has
performed.”
The CPS commended the group for
resolving to purchase the nomination form for the re-election of the Governor
in 2019, assuring that it was a positive development that will encourage
Governor Okowa to do more.
Others who spoke at the event
commended Governor Okowa for his wealth creation programmes which has made a
lot of jobless youths to become employers of labour and also, providing
infrastructure across the state without discrimination.
