…Says Ogboru Defeat Not Strange
People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Chieftain, Chief Sunny Onuesoke has congratulated Delta State governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, on his victory at the Delta State Governorship Tribunal against the All Progressive Congress (APC) Delta State governorship candidate, Chief Great Ogboru.
Onuesoke, who gave the congratulatory message at the premises of the Tribunal in Asaba, on Friday, told newsmen by the sideline that Okowa’s victory over Ogboru was not strange as proofs abound that Dr Okowa won the election squarely and fairly.
The PDP Chieftain, who argued that the Tribunal’s verdict was a true reflection of the wishes of the people of Delta State, said Ogboru’s sojourn to the tribunal was a waste of time and resources.
“With the Tribunal verdict, it is now obvious that Ogboru challenging the outcome of the election was a wild goose chase.
“The margin is too wide for any sane person to think of challenging it. Okowa won convincingly in twenty three out of twenty five local government areas, but lost marginally in two Local Government Areas.
“Well, Ogboru going to the Tribunal is not amazing because he is accustomed to challenging electoral victories in the past on allegations of being rigged out,” he said.
