Uduaghan Lambasts Okowa’s Campaign DG Over Alleged False ‘Rigging’ Alarm Ahead Delta Polls
Immediate past governor of Delta State, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan has taken a swipe at the Director General of the PDP Campaign Organisation, Mr Funkekeme Solomon over his lengthy statement alleging APC ‘rigging’ plots in the Saturday’s governorship and State Assembly elections.
BIGPEN ONLINE recalls that Mr. Funkekeme had specifically accused the former governor and national chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole as masterminds of the alleged plans to disrupt or rig the Delta State elections in favour of the APC.
But reacting to the wide allegations, Uduaghan lampooned Funkekeme for joining the fray amongst those exhibiting the anti-Uduaghan virus within the PDP fold.
According to the former governor, Funkekeme has only pressed the ‘panic alarm’ against the wrong persons when “we know those who have history of cultism and violence”.
Funkekeme, a former Delta State House of Assembly member and two times minority leader and deputy speaker since 1999 was also a commissioner for works under Uduaghan’ administration.
Below is Uduaghan’s reactions:
“My brother, my friend, my former Commissioner for Works, Funkekeme Solomon, I celebrate you today and always.
The anti-Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan virus has bitten you. Thought you will be the last person to manifest the symptoms. I was wrong.
As an inner caucus member of my team for over 14 years, I know you are well aware of my commitment and dedication to promoting peace. In and out of Government I will continue to do so. I have always preached against election violence.
You and I prepared for, executed and won several elections. Did we ever budget for thuggery? Did we ever buy guns or military uniforms?
I just contested for Senate in our Senatorial District. Where you told I used military uniforms or guns, or even any other weapon?
The APC National Chairman, Comrade Adams Oshiomole, and I, have never been known to be violent people. We know those who have history of cultism and violence.
I pray you get what you have been promised, which has pushed you to raise the false alarm against us. Many who travelled this route are getting disappointed as they are coming out empty handed.
Please pray very hard to drop the “hate spirit”.
Take care and remember always, “Back tyre nor dey overtake front tyre.”
