A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State, Olorogun Jaro Egbo, has stepped out of the 2023 governorship race, saying that this decision became necessary, seeing that the party in the state has become a one-man affair.

Egbo, who said this in a press statement on Saturday, hinted that his prayer request to God “was to be Governor or get the opportunity to play a key role in who will emerge as Governor of Delta State, come 2023.”

According to him, he looked forward to a robust campaign for the Governorship ticket of the APC, noting that there is a “monstrous takeover of all party structures and machinery by an arch-Facist and anti-democratic fellow.”

He continued: “The party we all worked to build in Delta State has become a new APC, Alibaba Political Cabal which has now rendered the tickets of the original Delta APC as a worthless piece of paper that cannot win any election in Delta State.

“It is therefore my conclusion that it will amount to futile exercise to vie for the governorship or any elective position under the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State.”

Furthermore, he disclosed that apart from withdrawing from the guber race, he will also not seek any elective position under the APC.

“I will henceforth deploy my resources and my Hivoltage political platform in working towards the emergence of a visionary Pan-Deltan governorship candidate who will move Delta State to higher levels of development,” then statement added.

WHY I WILL NO LONGER VIE FOR THE GOVERNORSHIP TICKET

With the 2023 general elections in mind, I have had cause to embark on a prayer retreat in 2019 when i turned 50 years of age.

My prayer request to the almighty God was to be  Governor or the opportunity to play a key role in who will emerge as Governor of Delta State come 2023.
I was then looking forward to a robust campaign for the Governorship ticket of my Party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), a veritable platform which i toiled day and night in concert with other Progressives to make a platform of choice for Deltans seeking a paradigm shift in the governance of the State.
We launched the campaign through my political platform Hivoltage Movement. *#APCTAKEOVADELTA* hashtag through grassroots campaign, provision of free school uniforms. free fuel and financial assistance to our petty traders and other forms of support to bring our people socio-economic succour.
Our campaign and programmes endeared our party to the teeming populace who signed up for the ideals we upheld.
All of these goodwill has been frittered away by the monstrous takeover of all party structures and machinery by an arch-Facist and anti-democratic fellow. The APC in Delta State is now a one man affair that brooks no alternative opinion. The party we all worked to build in Delta State has become a new APC, Alibaba Political Cabal which has now rendered the tickets of the original Delta APC as a worthless piece of paper that cannot win any election in Delta State.
It is therefore my conclusion that it will amount to futile exercise to vie for the governorship or any elective position under the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State.
I am therefore withdrawing my expression of interest to vie for the governorship or any elective position under the All Progressives Congress (APC).
I will henceforth deploy my resources and my Hivoltage political platform in working towards the emergence of a visionary Pan-Deltan governorship candidate who will move Delta State to higher levels of development.
I believe God will grant our wishes.
Thank you.
