He said the Governor performed creditably well during the first tenure, and expressed the hope that the second tenure would be better.

The  Activist said that he contributed financially to the sucess of the party at the State level, and told journalists in Warri area that despite Governor Okowa’s leadership skills, he still needed more credible and competent hands as members of the State Exco to take Delta State to the promise land.

He therefore commended the Governor for making it clear that membership of his transition committee was not an automatic ticket for membership of the State Executive Council, but said that those with antecedents who have made positive impacts should be considered for dividends of democracy to spread.
