Delta State Commissioner for Information, Dr. Ifeanyi Osuoza, has described the July 13, 2024 Local Government Council election in his Ward as free, fair, credible and transparent, even as he has predicted a landslide victory for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the statewide polls.
Dr. Osuoza who spoke to newsmen shortly after casting his vote around 10.30am, at his polling Unit 007 in Ward 10, Idumuje Ugboko, in Aniocha Local Government Area of Delta State, commended the State Independent Election Commission, DSIEC, for ensuring that election materials and personnel arrived on time and the process was conducted seamlessly, in a conducive and peaceful atmosphere.
He said: ‘I have to commend DSIEC for conducting a smooth, free, fair, transparent and credible election. Election materials and officials arrived quite early and they set up their structures on time to ensure that everything was ready before polling started. I must also commend our voters who turned out in their numbers to cast their votes, which is an indication that they responded very well to our campaigns.
“It is has always been our belief and philosophy in the PDP that there are no small elections. Every election is very important to us and that is why we campaigned comprehensively, vigorously and robustly across all the Wards and Local Government Areas in the State for this council election and the result is the impressive turnout of our voters.
“I have no doubts whatsoever that from the turn out I have witnessed in my polling unit today and from feelers that I have been getting from across the our LGA and other areas, the PDP is surely heading for a landslide victory across the State in this election.
The Delta Information Commissioner then appealed to Deltans to continue to support the administration of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori as he delivers his MORE Agenda to the people.
“I want to urge Deltans to continue to support our dear Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, as he continues with his focused, determined and steady leadership, to deliver legacy projects across the three Senatorial Districts and ensure the provision of life impacting dividends of democracy, through Meaningful Developmental initiatives, Opportunities for all, Realistic and impactful Reforms and Enhanced Peace and Security for all Deltans, in our collective effort towards Advancing Delta with the MORE Agenda”, he concluded.
