2023: Atiku/Okowa Administration Will Promote Development, Eradicate Insecurity – Elumelu

• Pursues establishment of Asaba Federal University of Technology, more job opportunities

A Presidency led by Atiku Abubakar and Sen. Ifeanyi Okowa will bring about significant developments that will have a positive impact on Nigerians’ lives, according to the Minority Leader of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Ndudi Elumelu.

Elumelu spoke in Oshimili North Local Government Area, Delta State, while urging voters to support the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and all of its candidates at ongoing rallies in the lead-up to the upcoming general elections.

The Delta North PDP Ward Campaign Team, which was being led by Elder Moses Idul, the PDP Senatorial Chairman, visited 10 wards in five communities, including Ibuza with five wards, Ukala – Okpunor, Akwukwu – Igbo, Ebu, Illah, and Okpanam. A sizable crowd followed Elumelu as he travelled in the campaign train.

Elumelu thanked the residents of Oshimili North for their support of the PDP while asking for their votes and went on to explain how the Atiku/Okowa ticket would end all forms of insecurity that have plagued the country.

“Atiku is a complete gentleman who understands the urgent needs of Nigerians and he is prepared to lead the country out of the woods. He is not a man that says something and he does not do it.

“He chose our Governor, His Excellency Sen. Dr Ifeanyi Okowa, to run a joint ticket with him for the presidency because of his belief in capacity.” 

“Our Governor is intelligent, well educated, well behaved, well manned, and calm.” You cannot make the number two citizen of Nigeria without being calm and approachable. He chose him because he believes that he is the person that can assist him. He believes in him to deliver Nigeria with him.

“I strongly believe that the Atiku/Okowa Presidency will bring meaningful things to Nigeria. It is a ticket that will wipe away insecurity, ensure a stable and robust economy, and ensure that our debts are written off. He did it before with President Obasanjo and we had a zero debt profile. They are bringing in men and women with proven integrity who are technically sound,to help deliver Nigeria from the economic quagmire that we have found ourselves in.

“If you look at all the federal roads across the nation, they are in deplorable shape.” Atiku/Okowa has a master plan to make them motorable for Nigerians. They have the master plan on how to improve the lives of the people of riverine areas of Nigeria and make them enjoy and benefit from the wealth that comes from their areas,” the Minority Leader stated.

Elumelu continued, “The APC Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Tinubu, has already publicly blessed PDP on national television. This makes the PDP’s victory even more certain. 

“When he told Omo-Agege, also on national television, that he would be governor of the Niger Delta State in a country where there is no such state as the Niger Delta State, he specifically delivered Sheriff Oborevwori as governor of Delta State. The PDP is fortunate and has been chosen by Nigerians, so all of the Party’s candidates—from national to state—have no trouble winning in the general elections, he said.

Elumelu, who is asking for the people’s support to run again for the House of Representatives, promised that he will focus more on human capital development by making sure that more youths are included in his empowerment programme and that women are included to help them become financially independent.

“We are going to vigorously pursue the establishment of the Asaba Federal University of Technology, Asaba, and the issue of the creation of Anioma State. Though the bills has been passed by the two Chambers, but yet to be signed by Mr. President, I hope that before he leaves, he will assent to it, particularly the establishment of Asaba Federal University of Technology,” he assured.

He emphasised that the creation of the university in Delta State will significantly increase the number of employment opportunities for residents of the Aniocha/Oshimili Federal Constituency, the Delta North Senatorial district, and Delta State as a whole.

“Most importantly, we will put forward bills to make lives meaningful in Nigeria, not only in my constituency, and also ensure that what is due to our people gets to them without any form of interference,” Elumelu promised while assuring that more community based projects will be sighted in more of the communities in Aniocha/Oshimili Federal Constituency, Delta North and Delta State in general.

As a result, he pleaded with the residents of Oshimili North to vote resoundingly in favour of Atiku/Okowa for President and Vice President, Sheriff Oborevwori/Onyeme for Governor and Deputy Governor, Ned Nwoko for Senate, Ndudi Elumelu for the House of Representatives, and Frank Esenwa for the House of Assembly.

Elumelu informed the populace to search for the PDP’s umbrella symbol and support the party in the general elections of 2023 for the offices of president, governor, and representatives to the national and state assemblies.
