DELTA NORTH 2015 GOVERNORSHIP RACE IS AN INALIENABLE RIGHT –OCHEI

Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Chief Victor Ochei has posited that an Anioma Governor is an inalienable right based on the conventional tripod arrangement in which the Central and South Senatorial zones have produced Governor.
Ochei who spoke in Asaba during a visit by the leadership of the Anioma Agenda, an ethno-political group maintained that the demand by the Igbo speaking people of Anioma for the governorship of the state was their inalienable right, a development that will justify equity and fairness.
He advised the numerous ethnic groups in the state to uphold unity in diversity, as it is the needed virtue capable of engendering socio-political and economic advancement within the state, even in the face of agitations for political.
According to him, Delta State as presently constituted was not a mistaken contraption but, one of divine creation which, with cooperation will encourage seamless peaceful coexistence, a necessary ingredient in societal development.
The chairman of the group, Mr. Alex Onwudiamu pleaded with other senatorial zones not to impose a difficult political burden on the Anioma Political Class, maintaining that “the Anioma’s are capable of coming up with one consensus candidate in 2015”
He explained that the visit was to seek the Speaker’s support as a strategic stakeholder in ensuring that governorship candidates of North Senatorial district extraction should be ready to subsume their personal ambition for the overall group interest of the Anioma Nation at the material time in their quest for the governorship position in Delta State in 2015.
