Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta South Senatorial District, Chief Ayirimi Emami, the member representing Warri South Constituency II in Delta State House of Assembly, Hon. Benson Obire, Chairman of APC in Warri South, Mr. Mario Owumi and a chieftain of the party, Mr. Tunde Okorodudu, have expressed optimism that APC would win the Warri South Chairmanship election come Saturday July 13.
They spoke in Warri, Delta state, Saturday June 29 when Prince Francis Yonwuren and Pastor Kingsley Omonigho, were officially unveiled as Warri South APC Chairmanship and Vice Chairmanship candidates.
Addressing the large gathering of APC faithful and supporters, Chief Emami, stressed the need to unite and throw their unwavering support behind Prince Francis Yonwuren and all APC candidates.
Chief Emami described Prince Yonwuren as a man capable of delivering the desired change to Warri South, saying: “Prince Yonwuren is a man of capacity that can deliver; he is someone we are all familiar with. Therefore, when he is elected as chairman, we can rely on him and hold him accountable.”
Whilst expressing concern about the integrity of the election to be conducted by Delta State Independent Electoral Commission, DSIEC, Chief Emami urged his supporters to come out enmasse to cast their vote, adding: “I know some of you think the election will not be free and fair and that someone will just write the result. I can assure you, if we all come together and say no to them, it will be difficult to manipulate the result.”
He restated his call on governors to support local government autonomy, so as to bring development to the grassroots.
The member representing Warri South Constituency II in Delta State House of Assembly, Hon. Benson Obire, who also addressed the massive crowd, said he is a testimony that the APC can win the local government election, assuring the chairmanship candidate of the support of Warri South Constituency 2.
Chairman of the occasion, Hon. Tunde Okorodudu, stated that APC has a long-range plan for the people and noted that APC is set to win the July 13 election.
He maintained that the renewed hope of President Bola Tinubu, is spreading to the grassroots.
Okorodudu averred: “President Tinubu has plans for the people, which is why he is bringing power closer to the people by ensuring local government receives full autonomy. Please go and inform your neighbour that APC is the answer.”
