Ogboru who spoke during the party’s campaign rallies held in Ekwerigbe Primary School playground in Ozoro, headquarters of Isoko North and also at Isoko Central School playground in Oleh, headquarters of Isoko South Council Area of the state, said Mr. President wants the people of the state to vote APC massively to ensure all federal government projects are well executed and completed.

The APC candidate was earlier at the palace of Ovie of Ozoro Kingdom, HRM Anthony Ogbogbo, Ebuka I, where he was first received by large turnout before proceeding to the palace of HRM Anthony Ovrawah, Omogha 1, the Odio-Ologbo of Oleh, where he also got a rousing welcome.

According to the APC candidate, Mr President has mandated all candidates of the party to reach out widely to ensure the APC is voted in all elections.

Ogboru told the monarchs that a vote for President Buhari by their subjects is a vote for institutional restructuring, saying the traditional institution would be fairly treated in Buhari’s second coming.

Both monarchs prayed for the success of the APC governorship candidate in the polls and also demanded a peaceful electioneering process from him.

Specifically, the Odio-Ologbo of Oleh, who prayed on behalf of other traditional rulers for all APC candidates including former governor Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan who also accompanied Ogboru on the visit, said “This is your time, your time has come and because your time has come, you will be fruitful”, he prayed.

Uduaghan who is APC Delta South senatorial candidate, said that Isoko nation which is part of his senatorial district wouldn’t vote PDP again because according to him, the Okowa-led administration have been shortchanging the people in area of budget planning and implementation.
