Chairman, Artisan Association of Nigerian, Delta State Chapter, Comr. Ifeanyi Abanum has refuted the speculations that the state governor, Sen. Ifeanyi Okowa betrayed the Southerners.
Abanum made this known while speaking with Pressmenin Asaba, the state capital.
He said Okowa did not betray the Igbos in any way, adding that as an Igbo man had worked for the Party and had always work for the good of kkis people.
He said whatever the Igbo needed, Okowa had settled it and he is a figure to be reckoned with in the country and also in the state.
He advised that instead of them bickering over his emergence as Vice President, they should work with Abubakar Atiku to make a change in the country.
While describing the governor Okowa as a blessing to the country, he said he deserves the office of Vice President under the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
He said he and his members were optimistic that with Okowa in the Presidency, Nigeria would turn out to be a peaceful nation which it used to be.
While thanking the Almighty God for making it possible for a competent man, Sen. Ifeanyi Okowa, to emerge as the Vice President of this country he prayed that it comes to pass in the coming general election.
The Chairman promised, with the support of his members, to give the incoming Vice President their massive votes, as they had tested him and earlier endorsed him as the country’s Vice President.
