Senator Patrick Osakwe
has endorsed the governorship aspiration of Peoples Democratic Party
frontline gubernatorial candidate, Sir Tony Chuks Obuh, describing him
as a humble and intelligent gentleman who has been a key player in the
PDP political engineering in Delta State.
Osakwe said Obuh has
been sponsoring and financing various political pressure groups that
have assisted the party in mass mobilisation of eligible voters for PDP
victories in various elections.
He said: "He who the system says will be our governorship candidate will certainly be the one that will carry the day.
"It is either you are in or you are out, period.
"Those working against Governor Uduaghan are wasting their time.
"He is our party leader and we shall go with him in the present political dispensation.
"He knows the best among the aspirants.
"Governor Uduaghan has done well.
"Asaba International Airport is one of the legacies of His Excellency.
"His vision for Delta
State is great and we need someone that is not the enemy of the governor
to finish and improve upon the enviable performances of the Uduaghan
administration.
"Tony Obuh is well known
to me because of his key roles in government, particularly his silent
but deep involvement in several PDP activities across board.
"I say here and now that
my political structures in Ndokwa and beyond have today adopted Sir
Tony Chuks Obuh as our governorship aspirant and come November 29, 2014,
he will surely clinch the PDP governorship ticket, by the special grace
of God."
Speaking earlier, Obuh
told the senator and political tactician that his success at the party
primaries and at the polls requires the total support and push of Chief
Osakwe's political structures within the Ndokwa Nation and across board.
He said his sole
objective of aspiring to the office of Governor of Delta State is to
build on the huge success of Uduaghan's administration and take Delta
State to a higher socio-economic and political level.
Sir Obuh further
asserted that Deltans will enjoy the dividends of democracy in a greater
measure if elected in 2015, pointing out that his administration will
focus on youth and women empowerment through vocational training, skills
acquisition supported via the provision of initial take-off capital in
line with the Delta Beyond Oil vision
