The Vice President, Prof. Yemi
Osinbajo has declared that both Delta and Akwa Ibom States should not be
controlled by the opposition party.
This was as he urged people of
both states to key into the progressive ideology of the All Progressives
Congress, APC.
Speaking when he visited both
states on Monday, Osinbajo said the states have more potential which could be
actualised by voting for APC candidates in the upcoming Saturday’s election.
Osinbajo, while addressing APC
members in Warri, Delta state, also reeled out projects that the APC-led
Federal Government has completed and those that are ongoing in the State and in
the entire South-South.
He urged the people that Delta
State can achieve more if they vote Great Ogboru, the APC governorship on 9
March.
According to Osinbajo: “Even the
East-West road that we have been talking about, this is the first government to
put resource into it and all of us will be able to benefit.
“The Lagos-Calabar railway is
also ongoing. When people criticize President Buhari, many forget that of the
four refineries that we built in this country, that when he was Minister of
Petroleum was when we built three of them, 3,500 kilometers pipelines laid in
three years by this same, Muhammadu Buhari.
“So we asked ourselves are we not
better off under such a President, are we not better off when our state is part
of that center? Delta State should not be an opposition state, why should it?
“What happened at the
Presidential and National Assembly elections were a great victory, but the
completion of the victory will come on Saturday when Great Ogboru will become
the governor of Delta.”
The vice president also urged
leaders and supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to unite, saying
“when we work together, we will emerge victorious on Saturday.”
Also addressing an APC forum in
Akwa Ibom, he told the people that they stand to gain much more when the
thinking of the state government is aligned with that of the federal
government.
