The Delta State government and the Peoples Democratic Party have urged INEC to fix the mistakes made in the presidential elections ahead of the governorship and House of Assembly elections scheduled for March 11.

The spokesman for the PDP Presidential Campaign Committee who is also the commissioner for information in Delta state, Charles Aniagwu, stated this in Asaba on Thursday.

Aniagwu asserted that the party and Delta state government would not approve of any attempt by anyone to sacrifice another person to advance their goals.

He announced that Delta state governor, Ifeanyi Okowa who was the running mate of PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, had ordered security personnel and law enforcement agencies to look into instances of clashes during the polls to hold those responsible accountable.

Aniagwu said: “We want to plead with our brothers, who in the cause of the presidential elections, have expressed their vote preference outside the PDP to know that this is the time for us all to come together to sustain the Oborevwori/Onyeme ticket and not to be swayed by selfish individuals.

“For us as a government, we will continue, as we have always promised, to deliver on the promises that we have made to our people up to May 28, 2023. We appreciate our brothers and sisters for shunning violence and for realizing that as one, we can get many things done. (tramadol) ”

He continued: “The life of every Nigerian, and indeed every Deltan, is precious to us, and we will not support any attempt by anybody to want to sacrifice any life on account of their ambitions. Nobody’s ambition is worth the blood of any Deltan.

“Do not let anybody mobilize you in the cause of the next elections to cause mayhem because they (the opposition) believe that by doing so, they will be able to realize what they want.

“We have it on good record that the All Progressives Congress, APC, is mobilizing to destabilize votes in areas where they believe are proper strongholds of the PDP. The challenge of the presidential elections is a different ballgame entirely, and we all know the circumstances that pervaded the atmosphere because of that election.

“We plead with our brothers and sisters, our mothers and fathers, to keep faith with the development trajectory that we have seen in Delta State in the last eight years and for them to see the imperative of sustaining such development.

“We are very convinced that the best way to sustain such development is to vote for the current Speaker of the State House of Assembly and governorship candidate of the PDP, Oborevwori, and his running mate, Sir Onyeme.

“Any other ticket, as far as the governorship of Delta State is concerned, might not be in the interest of all Deltans.”
