IN RESPONSE TO DELTA STATE PDP SO-CALLED PRESS RELEASE DATED 24TH OCTOBER, 2022
I consider it necessary to respond to a so-called Press Release supposedly signed by the State Publicity Secretary, PDP Delta State, Dr. Ifeanyi Osuoza, which was in response to my earlier write up that reiterated the fact that the supposed victory by Sheriff Oborevwori at the Supreme Court, was one that was 'purchased', and was typical of Delta State PDP court cases.
While I would not waste my precious time and energy to respond to the said supposed press release by the State PDP Secretary because it is not really worth it, I am only concerned about the wrong impression they are trying to paint in the hearts of Deltans about the whole issue and my person.
Let it be known to all that (Zik Gbemre has not done anything wrong that will make any sane Deltan to sympathize with me, as being painted by the State PDP Publicity Secretary in their said press release. Are they trying to sympathize with me for SPEAKING THE RAW TRUTH TO the political powers that be?
Any well-meaning Deltan and Nigerian that may have read my earlier write up that necessitated the Delta PDP's response, would see that what I have written and published is the WHOLE TRUTH and nothing but the truth about Sheriff Oborevwori and Ifeanyi Okowa, as regard the said purchased Supreme Court judgment, and other court cases involving those in the State's PDP. Also, are the two of them not the reigning champions of Delta PDP for now? And that their reign will one day lapse, which will give room to another person that will continue the vicious circle they have subjected the State into since 1999 to date? I mean, can someone be a reigning political champion for life? Apparently not!
Was Ibori not the PDP political champion of Delta? But where is he now in the scheme of things?
Again, can those concerned swear to God that Okowa and Sheriff didn't influence the supposed Supreme Court judgment in favour of Sheriff? Did they use their LEGITIMATE INCOME to induce the said judgement in favour of Sheriff? Has the Delta State PDP not been using the State's resources to fund court cases involving them since 1999 till present? Are Okowa and Sherriff not said to have been financing these court cases with Delta State stolen wealth? Was Okowa and Sheriff's present wealth not traceable to Delta's wealth? What was their financial status before 1999, when compared to what it is now? Can they vouch that their current state of wealth was from their legitimate source(s) of income? And that there are no traces of the State'stolen money in them? We all know the obvious answers to these questions. So, what exactly are they trying to defend?
Is the Delta State PDP and their leaders not responsible for the carnage of underdevelopment and impoverishment across the length and breadth of Delta State, when compared to other neighboring States like Rivers and Edo States? Especially when we consider the fact that Delta State remains the highest earner of the oil wealth from the Federation Account amongst the States in the South-South region. How come the State is said to be so rich, yet its people and the state's infrastructural development are nothing to write home about?
These and many more are my grievances with the Delta State PDP that have made themselves a class of SELF-CENTERED persons who only see the State Government as a cow to milk its wealth and resources DRY. And not a place to selflessly SERVE the people.
This has been the unfortunate sad tale of Delta State and its people under the wicked hands of the so-called Delta PDP that started from James Ibori who laid the foundation, followed by Emmanuel Uduaghan, and continued with Ifeanyi Okowa. And which Okowa is planning for Sheriff to continue their evil legacy that has been to the detriment of the majority of Deltans.
Are the people that make up the Delta State PDP, and their supporters, not even ashamed of their bad governance since 1999 to date that has left the oil city of Warri and its environs, and the entire State in a shadow of themselves. Are they not ashamed that today, the State, including its capital Asaba, is known as the "keke (tricycle) capital" of Nigeria. All they do is to live in stupendous affluence, drive in their over-long motorcade of Toyota Land cruiser Prado jeeps, and daily wastes and misappropriate Delta State funds while they dole out 'PEANUTS' to the people whom they have DELIBERATELY kept in poverty, to continually sing their praises. What a shame! Mark my words, all of you that have touched Delta State funds in the ways that are unbecoming of Public Officers, will surely pay for it in this life, one way or the other.
I repeat, Sheriff Oborevwori' Supreme Court judgment victory was heavily influenced and induced with Delta state money. It is a 'purchased' Supreme Court judgment and every sane person is aware that it was so. Delta State PDP remains an outdated party that has outlived its usefulness. Delta State PDP remains a very "sick" and "infested" party that has no cure, and WILL NEVER SERVE ANY USEFUL PURPOSE OR THE INTEREST OF DELTANS. Since 1999 till present, the Delta State PDP has continued to ruin the entire State and its potentials.
Rather than Ifeanyi Okowa and Sheriff Oborevwori to concentrate on how to help the people that were heavily impacted by the recent floods devastation, they are busy celebrating their 'purchased' Supreme court judgment victory and their usual fake Thanksgivings.
Whatever Okowa has done to humiliate Chief James Ibori as Delta PDP champion now, and as his former boss, I am certain that Sheriff Oborevwori will do same to him at end of his administration if he wins the gubernatorial election in 2023. If Ibori was told as a governor of Delta back then that Okowa and Oborevwori would humiliate him, I am sure he wouldn't have believed it? If Uduaghan was told that Okowa will disgrace him when he was a sitting governor of Delta State, he too wouldn't have believed it. Even Uduaghan's daughter was prevented by Okowa from winning under the PDP as a House of Assembly Aspirant. All of them that are today running after Okowa like bees will soon disappear, if after PDP looses the Presidential election to Peter Obi of the Labour Party. That is why I say no person is a political champion throughout his life time. He that has ears, let him hear and be wise.
