DELTA 2023: Take This As A Personal Project, Braduce Angozi Charges Newly Inaugurated 25 LGA Coordinators

WARRI/Nigeria: As the primaries for the 2023 elections draw close based on the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, released timetable, and with various aspirants moving and consulting with stakeholders in Delta State, one of the aspirants for the race to the Delta State Government House, come May 29, 2023, Chief Dr. Braduce Amakazi Angozi, had charged his LGA coordinators to see the drive to govern the state as their own project.

The quiet and unassuming politician, who is a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, stated this during the inauguration of the coordinators for the 25 Local Government Areas of the state, on Saturday, March 19, 2022, in an event held in Warri.

He told the coordinators that they were carefully selected for the job, and should not see the assignment as ward coordinators, that of Braduce Angozi, but rather a project for the benefit of each and everyone that was inaugurated as coordinators.

“I want to appeal to you, to take this job as a personal job, and not that of Braduce Angozi. If we can do this in every of our ward, we will come out victorious, and we all will be happy at the end.”

Dr Angozi stated that the inauguration may be coming late, as many had been insinuating, but he believes that it’s not those who start first will win the race, that behind the scene he has been engaging with a lot of stakeholders in the state about his ambition to govern the state.

“Before today, many had asked questions on why I had not come out publicly, but be assured, I have been working from behind the scene, talking and discussing with leaders and stakeholders of our great party, PDP.”

“We should know that not the one who starts first, will come out first. My doing this now is deliberate, but now that the coordinators have been inaugurated, let us go out in our various wards, and work for our victory. Talk to the delegates, get them to our side,” he said.

He assured the inaugurated Coordinators that should not in anyway be deceived by the rumours and insinuations by some persons that the Governor, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Okowa has anointed a candidate, saying that the governor cannot descend to that level after assuring PDP faithful of a free and fair primary, to now turn around to pick one person.

“I assure you one thing, you will never regret working for this vision, let us individually put our best, to ensure victory, and get the party’s ticket.”

“And again, the issue of the Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa anointing someone out of the numerous aspirants from the party is just false. He had told party faithful the primaries in the state will be free and fair. And I can assure you he still stands by that.”

Chief Dr. Braduce Angozi can be considered as an underdog in the race to the government House Asaba, as he had not come out much like the other aspirants, who daily have been traversing the states to curry stakeholders publicly, but from his previous records in public service, he has a lot to offer Deltans with his Delta Transformation Road Map, which he called “PROJECT TEAM”.

Responding, three coordinators from the three senatorial districts thanked the Governorship aspirant for given the opportunity to work towards the betterment and development of Delta Stat, assuring him of their utmost contribution to the success of his dream to govern the state.

They praised his unassuming disposition to people, as its one quality that many aspirants under the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, had failed to display.

The inauguration was attended by selected coordinators from 23 local government areas, while that of Okpe and Ika South East were absent due to other family engagements.
