I had never declared my support for Atiku or any other aspirant –Okowa

Okowa

Delta State Governor, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa says he hasn't told anyone that he's supporting former Vice President Atiku Abubakar for the PDP Presidential ticket ahead of the 2019 polls, adding that he won't "force" anybody to vote for any aspirant during the forthcoming PDP convention.                 
Dr. Okowa made the clarification on June 27 at Delta State Government House Press Centre, Asaba during his quarterly media briefing.             
He hinged the hope of local government workers in the state as well as pensioners and other categories of workers being owed salary arrears on the release of the third tranche of Paris Club Refund, which he has consistently stressed that hasn't gotten to the state despite its purported payment by the federal government to all states several months ago.
