BREAKING: Delta PDP Caucus Fails To Reach Agreement On Guber Zoning, Meeting Adjourned
By Daniel Dafe
Oasis Magazine can authoritatively report that at the enlarged “caucus” meeting of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta state on Friday night at the Government House, Asaba, no zoning agreement was reached on the senatorial district to produce the PDP governorship flagbearer for the 2023 election.
Sources said the meeting was adjourned and no decision was reached until the next caucus, adding that the issue of who will succeed Okowa come, 2023, never came up and was never in the agenda of the meeting.
Oasis Magazine gathered that the party’s Chairman, Kingsley Esiso had moved the motion for the zoning of the Governorship to Delta Central and was supported by Sen. Stella Omu and Hon. Ndudi Elumelu.

Sen. James Manager and Edwin Uzor are said to have opposed zoning it to Delta Central.
Meanwhile, this reporter was reliably informed that the rumour making rounds that Governor Ifeanyi Okowa confronted Chief James Ibori, saying “You picked your successor, allow me pick my own successor,” is fake news.
A political observer, Uduaghan Collins, said: “The Governor Okowa we know is very careful with his words and will never make such careless comments and he never made such comments. Those who are bent seeing that they destroy the aged long brotherly love between our National Leader Chief James Ibori and Governor Okowa are the ones spreading falsehood.
