Delta Governorship: Ogboru Set To Inaugurate Campaign Council Friday
The governorship candidate of All Progressive Congress (APC) in Delta State, Chief Great Ovedje Ogboru is set to inaugurate the party campaign council, BigPen Online can report.
The event which is expected to hold at the Orchid Hotel, Asaba, the Delta State capital on Friday would commence by 12 noon.
The inauguration which was formerly scheduled for last Saturday, was postponed due to logistics and ensure a strategic campaign and a decisive victory at the polls according to Director- General, of the Delta state APC Campaign Council, George Timinimi.
Timinimi added that the inauguration ceremony will be followed with the launch of the manifesto of the APC governorship candidate in Delta state, Olorogun Great Ovedje Ogboru.
“we shall launch our governorship candidate’s manifesto to showcase before the media and the good people of Delta state what an APC government will do for the state,” Timinimi said.
“We are going to start re-writing the challenging story of our dear Delta state by bringing good governance, infrastructural revolution and empowerment of our people” he added.
Timinimi said the inauguration of the committees and the launch of the manifesto will signpost the formal commencement of APC campaign which he affirmed will penetrate every nook and cranny of Delta state.
Speaking further, he said the day’s event will end with interaction with the media to further chat with them under a sprightly environment to properly highlight our vision for a New Delta and One Delta for All , he concluded.
An earlier statement by Mr. Zik Zulu Okafor, Media Director, Great Ogboru Campaign Organisation, said the event is not a rally.
Okafor who quoted Ogboru said: “it is for the inauguration of the different committees for the governorship campaign at all levels from the state, LGAs to the wards and units. It is, therefore, not envisioned to be a crowdy occasion. It is purely a strategic event, tactical in concept and execution to achieve a decisive victory at the governorship polls”.
Ogboru who has been in the race to Government House Asaba since 2003 is squaring up to challenge incumbent Governor Ifeanyi Okowa for the second time.
