Beware, APC’s bringing poverty, hunger, insecurity, Okowa warns Deltans
By SENATOR Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State, on Saturday, warned Deltans to beware of the change promise being mouthed by the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state, saying it will amount to hunger, poverty, inequity and insecurity if allowed to take over the state.
This is just as he stressed the need for peace, equity, love and understanding among Deltans will subsist, saying better days are ahead if he is reelected governor of the state in the coming general elections under the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) during the elections.
The governor made the plea on Saturday at the kick-off of PDP’s campaign rally in Koko and Sapele local and at Oghara town in Ethiope West Local Government Area of the state.
