Uduaghan Assures Niger Deltans of More Democratic Dividends
Former Delta state governor, Emmanuel Uduaghan has urged Niger Deltans to expect more dividends of democracy from President Muhammadu Buhari.
Uduaghan, who contested for Delta South senatorial district under the platform of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) in the just-concluded general election made the disclosure through his aide, Prince Gabriel Udemude.
While commending Nigerians, especially the people of Niger Delta for voting massively for President Buhari, thereby returning him for second term in office as the President of Nigeria, he said: “As a hard-working President, Niger Delta people should expect more democratic dividends from him because an adage says, to whom much is given; much is expected.
He, therefore, urged the people to be calm as the government put machinery in place to address the issues bothering the youths of the region.
“The victory of Mr. President is proof of how the people of the region love him, and he will not let them down,” he added.
Meanwhile, a chieftain of the APC in Warri North Local Government Area, Delta State, Chief Francis Maku-Eyituoyor, has debunked unsavoury media report credited to Air Vice-Marshall Frank Ajobena (retd) about the role Uduaghan played in the 2019 general elections, stating that it was unfair and completely false.
Maku-Eyituoyor, who is the immediate past chairman of Warri LGA, described Uduaghan as a sincere and loyal member of the APC, who worked very hard, expended his time, energy and resources for the success of the party in the state and gave President Muhammadu Buhari the highest number of votes in the South-South in the elections.
He added that the Uduaghan did not relent in working for Chief Ogboru, the APC gubernatorial candidate as well as others that contested the elections on the party’s ticket.
Maku-Eyituoyor stated that the overall fortune of the APC in the elections was paramount to Uduaghan, just as his own senatorial ambition.
