As political activities towards the 2019 general elections continue to gather momentum, frontline contender for the Isoko North constituency house of Assembly ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mr. Mike Ogwah, has disclosed that his intent to run was spurred by the peoples’ clamour for quality legislative representation.
Mr. Ogwah who made this disclosure Sunday at the residence of the Chairman of the Isoko North Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), while declaring his intentions to run for the House of Assembly, averred that he will not fail his constituents if elected.
Addressing the mammoth crowd of supporters and party faithful numbering over 2000, Ogwah said his sojourn in government has afforded him the requisite experience to deliver on the mandate of his people, which is to ensure equitable distribution of the dividends of democracy.
According to the house of Assembly hopeful, the crowd of supporters is a clear testimonial to the fact that he is the peoples choice even as he commended them for their support and turnout.
“I am not a neophyte in this business hence I can effectively deliver my duties. The crowd today is an affirmation of God’s mandate. I was called by the people to serve and today I have yielded. I will not fail them.”
Mr. Ogwah urged the electorates to collect their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) to enable them exercise their franchise to choose who they want in the coming election.
In his speech, the Isoko North PDP chairman, Mr. Godwin Ogorugba, congratulated Ogwah on his official declaration, saying that the large turnout of constituents is an affirmation of the party’s strength and readiness ahead of the 2019 general elections.
Mr. Ogorugba however stressed that the party will ensure a free and fair primary to allow for the peoples choice.
Speaking with Journalists shortly after the event, Director General of the Ogwah Campaign Organization, Mr. Sunny Elueni, commended the party faithful and supporters for their support stating that it is a confirmation of the Ogwah Campaign readiness to elect their principal, even as he reiterated the need for electorates to collect their PVCs.
