True to widely held belief, Delta State
Governor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan's
Expression of Interest and Nomination forms
for the Delta South Senatorial district were
submitted at the Peoples Democratic Party
State Headquarters Asaba, Thursday.
Governor Uduaghan, whose forms were
bought on October 17 by some of his political
associates in G3 at the National Secretariat of
the PDP, Wadata House, Abuja, has expressed
his deep appreciation to all PDP faithful and
Deltans for their love and support, just as he
promised quality representation at the senate.
His words, “History is in the making and I
have to heed the calls of my people who have
severally urged me to go to the Senate after
my tenure as Governor of Delta State. I will
not disappoint them. I will, by the grace of
God give my senatorial zone quality
representation. I also want to appreciate
President Goodluck Jonathan and assure him
that I will put all my National and
International reach at his disposal.
Meanwhile, the political platform in the
senatorial district, the G3, comprising Isoko,
Ijaw and Itsekiri, has fully backed Dr.
Uduaghan’s senatorial ambition.
Secretary of the group, Hon. Solomon
Funkekeme said Governor Uduaghan is the
best the district can present at the National
Assembly at this critical moment of the
nation’s democracy, stressing “his wealth of
experience and leadership qualities stand him
out.”
Also, the Isoko Advancement Network (IAN)
has applauded the decision of Governor
Uduaghan to contest the Senatorial seat,
saying that the network is confident that the
three ethnic groups that make up the zone be
well represented at the senate.
Speaking in Asaba, Chairman of the IAN, Hon.
Mike Ogwa said the Isoko nation is fully and
solidly in support of Governor Uduaghan’s
senatorial aspiration and promised to mobilise
the people of the district to back him.
