DELTA State Commissioner for Information, Hon. Patrick Ukah has described the Senator representing Delta North District at the upper legislative chambers as an asset to the state and the nation.

Hon. Ukah made the statement yesterday, Sunday, April 30, 2016, in Ibusa, during the burial ceremony of Obi Francis Nwaoboshi, father of Senator Nwaoboshi.

According to Hon. Ukah, the large turnout of people from different parts of the country was a clear indicator that Senator Nwaoboshi who is the immediate past chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State did well as a representative of the people.

Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, former Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan, members of National Assembly, among other dignitaries attended the ceremony.

"Delta State is blessed and Senator Nwaoboshi obviously is an asset to the state and to the country," he said, adding, "we are not mourning the passage of Obi Nwaoboshi, we are celebrating his life and time because, we have an asset in Senator Peter Nwaoboshi."

The Commissioner commended those who came out to bid farewell to the late Nwaoboshi and called for support for Governor Okowa's administration by engaging in peaceful activities.

Ahead of Oshimili North PDP Congress, Party Stakeholders Sue For Peace

Akwukwu-Igbo: Ahead of next month's Oshimili North Local Government PDP congress, Senator (Barr.) Peter Nwaoboshi and other party stakeholders enjoined party members to sue for peace, equity and fair play.

They made the appeal over the weekend during a stakeholders meeting of the party held in Akwukwu-Igbo, headquarters of the Local Government Area.

Specifically, Senator Nwaoboshi said that there was no need for any suspicion in the conduct of the forthcoming congress as the guidelines given by the leadership of the PDP will be strictly adhered to. He advised party loyalists to maintain the peace at all times as no meaningful development can take place in an atmosphere of rancour.

On my part, I assured party members that talks are ongoing on how to ensure a hitch-free congress as well as  a level playing ground for all aspirants to put their popularity to test in order to have the best elected at the end of the day.
