The Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, has called for unity with the expiration of the tenure of Local Government Council Chairmen on March 8, noting that elections into the Local Government Councils would be held soon.
Oborevwori stated this at the Peoples Democratic Party, stakeholders meeting held on Friday at the Government House Asaba.
He said, “The local government council chairmen will exit this coming week and l want to assure you that very soon, we will conduct election into local government councils. A date will be announced for the election; it will not be too long.
“I just want to put you on notice that the wards should continue to bubble, let our local governments continue to get stronger. PDP is a party that you cannot beat.
“We are still more united across the South-South; Delta State is firm, the party is strong. We are united and there is cooperation everywhere. Even at the national, we are doing our best.
“We know very soon that the congresses at the wards, at the Local Government Areas, at the state, and even including the zonal, all will be held this year. So, once we meet at the NEC meeting, decisions will be taken. So, nothing to worry about.”
In their separate remarks, former Governors of the State, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan and Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, urged leaders of the party to continue to work in one accord for the sustainable victory of the party in subsequent elections.
