WHY PDP, GOV OKOWA'S 2019 LANDSLIDE VICTORY IS GUARANTEED IN DELTA STATE - FRED OGHENESIVBE.

"EMERHOR IS POLITICALLY INEXPERIENCED; AS DELTA APC CRISIS DEEPENS. Leaders of the Party are Daily Engrossed over Selfish Power Tussle........ Oghenesivbe 

Executive Assistant to the Governor of Delta State on Communications, Barrister Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe has said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is far superior to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in terms of enduring internal democracy, mass mobilization of eligible voters, strategic and progressive politics.


The EA communications to Okowa, in a statement said the multiple factions in Delta APC, is as a result of lack of credible leadership, misplaced priority by self centered leaders of the party, coupled with escalated unhealthy rivalries among overzealous and desperate individuals pursuing narrow interests of their factional cabal.

Oghenesivbe who was the spokesperson and image maker of APC 2015 gubernatorial candidate, Olorogun Otega Emerhor disclosed that the fake reconciliation between Emerhor and Ogboru factions after the 2015 general elections was short-lived as a result of past betrayals and petty political squabbles while the duo of Ogboru and Emerhor held sway as major promoters of the Democratic Peoples Party (DPP) in the state, adding that the political cold war cannot and will never be settled before and after 2019 general elections.

He further assured that PDP in Delta State shall in 2019, capitalise on the enviable performances of Okowa Administration, and acute rivalries among the clueless and desperate self centered leaders of the various APC Delta factions to garner landslide victory at the polls, pointing out that Deltans shall not give their votes to APC and her candidates bedeviled by politics of deceit, acute bitterness, rascality, petty squabbles and lack of visionary leadership.

"The power tussle between Ogboru and Emerhor APC Delta factions especially their divided interests on who becomes the 2019 gubernatorial candidate shall reduce the party to a worthless social club; in the sense that a party devoid of unity and internal domocracy is bound to fail which is why APC shall again fail in Delta State, come 2019.

"As it is today, Senator Ovie Omo Agege is gaining upper hand in the ongoing tussle for political leadership in Delta APC, a development capable of retiring Emerhor from partisan politics. Mr Jones Erue, the factional chairman of Ogboru/Agege group has been recognised by the Adams Oshiomole led APC National Working Committee (NWC), and has gone ahead to approve indirect primaries as against Emerhor's direct primaries under the present dispensation.

"It is obvious and crystal clear that the battle for APC Delta gubernatorial ticket shall favour Ogboru/Agege faction because Oshiomole recognises the political sagacity of the duo of Ogboru and Agege, with little or no regard for Emerhor's fractured political relevance.

"Emerhor made a grave mistake for disbanding his 2015 team, pushed away majority of his core loyalists and political foot-soldiers into a thick cloud of hopelessness and relied on Ogboru/Agege political structure to bargain for federal appointments. That was Emerhor's greatest political mistake.

"The latest conflict between the Ogboru/Agege and Emerhor's faction became an eye opener for Emerhor and a reminder of the earlier advise; which is to grow and expand his political structure instead of cheaply relying on Ogboru structure.

"Political analysts are quick to say that Emerhor is more of a business magnate, insurance and financial expert than a politician. His actions and inactions till this very moment gave him (Emerhor) away as a novice and grossly inexperienced politician.

"It is therefore not surprising for APC NWC and the crashing Presidency of President Muhammadu Buhari, to openly throw their weight behind Ogboru/Agege faction, as a necessary step to avoid another shameful performance at the polls, come 2019.

"It follows that in the midst of crude rivalries and unhealthy struggle for political leadership by desperate APC Delta factional leaders, PDP being the most celebrated political party in the state with long history of elections victories; shall again display her superiority in the forthcoming general elections through a wide margin landslide victory.

"PDP Delta Central Mega rally which was held last Wednesday, 12th September 2018, at Ughelli Township Stadium, clearly revealed that Delta Central Senatorial District, known to be the brain-box of Delta politics in terms of population and size, absolutely belong to PDP, as thousands of APC members and other political parties defected to PDP on the ground that APC has failed Nigerians, especially it's deliberate and blunt refusal to fulfill electioneering campaign promises made in 2015.

"APC Delta is far away from the electorate in terms of grassroots mobilization in Delta State; while the leaders of the party are daily engrossed over selfish power tussle tantamount to the growth and strength of the party, which is why PDP and Gov Okowa, shall be victorious in the forthcoming gubernational elections and other elections across board in the state," Oghenesivbe assured.
