2023: My Ambition Is Highly In Progress – Delta ex-Commissioner, Salutes Deltans At Valentine

A frontline runner for the Governorship ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) in Delta State, Chief Dr. Angozi Amakazi Braduce, has said he was still much in the Delta 2023 governorship race.

BIGPENNGR reports that Braduce spoke in a valentine day message following rumours making the round that he has abandoned his ambition.

He said that his ambition to succeed Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, come 2023, was in progress, adding that he had never at anytime contemplated abandoning the journey half way.

“My ambition to contest the 2023 election is highly in progress. I had never contemplated to quite. I am still much in the race. All you have been hearing is just rumour. I will therefore like to use this medium to tell all my friends and supporters to disregard such rumours”, he said.

On Valentine celebration, he urged Deltans to strengthen their relationships as the world celebrates 2022 Valentine’s today, February 14.

He enjoined Deltans to celebrate the day by showing agape love that will bring about good and development of the state.

The former Delta Commissioner, in a statement released to newsmen on Sunday, said that the celebration should go beyond exchange of romantic affection with greeting cards and gifts, to reflect more commitment to the development of the state.

He said that showing one another true love would conquer some of the recurring social vices that Nigerians are faced with daily.

According to him, lack of true love has brought the country backward saying, ‘Valentine day, should go beyond show of romantic affection but display of practical love for our state and country’.

“While I congratulate us for this year’s celebration, I advise we should go beyond mere expression of greeting cards, and gifts, but use the occasion to touch lives of less privileged. This is the love we need now, in our state and country.

“The love we need now, is that which will build a relationship that can transform our society to a crime free society. If we can touch many lives, we will express the true value of this special day of St. Valentine.

“When we do this, our state, Delta Will be a better place for all. Our individual contributions through love and affection, will compliment that of the government.

“The true celebration of Valentine Day, will help cure the inter-ethnic rivalry, communal crises, increase in get rich syndrome involving our youths and many other social vices”.
