Okowa, Obire & Ogboru. |
The
governorship candidate of the Progressive Peoples Alliance (PPA) in the 2019
election, Dr. O'diakpo Obire, at the weekend, appealed to the governorship
candidate of the All Progressives Congress and others that instituted cases
against the incumbent Governor, Dr. Arthur Ifeanyi Okowa to drop their cases
for the interest and growth of the State.
Obire
made the appeal at the Otorho-Agbon, Headquarters of Ethiope East Local
Government Area while congratulating Chief Ovedje Ogboru on his 61st Birthday.
He said his appeal to Ogboru and others is based on the spirit of
sportsmanship.
Dr.
Obire and his Deputy, Engr Rex Biose were on a thank you tour of Delta Central
Senatorial District, where he thanked the people for standing with them.
While
calling for the understanding and cooperation of the governorship candidates,
Obire pointed out that election cases are long-drawn and they retard the
development of the State. He said many a time people allow certain things to go
not because they cannot follow them through but because of the adverse effect
they may have on the generality of the people, mostly when it has to do with
election cases.
"Indubitably,
every governorship candidate in the 2019 election has an issue, genuine or not,
to grind with the winner. I have dropped whatever issues I may have had because
of the larger interest of the State. I am therefore appealing to others to drop
theirs too to enable the governor concentrate on the delivery of good
governance", Dr. Obire said.
He
said "peace is a sine quanon of development therefore we should not
distract Dr. Okowa with tribunal cases. We should allow him to focus on governance
to bring sustainable development to the State. Therefore, in the spirit of
Easter that epitomizes love and forgiveness, I wish to call on my kinsman and
elder brother, Chief Great Ogboru and other governorship candidates to 'sheath
their swords', and support Okowa in the task of delivering good
governance".
