DELTA State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, Chief Peter Nwaoboshi, yesterday, faulted the Secretary to the State
Government, SSG, Mr. Ovuozourie Macaulay, for saying that he was not aware of
any agreement between the Anioma and other parts of the state for a power
shift.
Nwaoboshi who described the comment
as “provocative,” told Vanguard in an interview that he had received several
phone calls since the SSG made the statement, which was published in a
national newspaper on Monday.
He said, “I want to say
categorically here that the SSG should shut up his mouth and face the job the
governor gave to him to do as SSG. In the first place, he has no right to speak
because he is not a party functionary. He has never held party position in his
life from ward to the national level. Also, he is not a foundation member of
the party, but was brought in as a journalist in Asaba.
“He is just trying to make himself
relevant. If he has political ambition, he should be bold to declare it and not
to charge the political atmosphere with such provocative statements in the
media.”
The SSG was quoted in the report to have said that as an insider, he was not aware of any agreement between the Anioma and other parts of the state for a power shift, adding that even if there was one, it was crystal clear that the people and leaders of Delta North never kept their end of it.
