2023: Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi's Political Clout to Govern Delta State: His Good Works Speak 

Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi and Wife, Best Positioned to Make Delta Great Great



Gbagi Support Group has affirmed that, The sterling leadership qualities and good works of Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi has put him in the frontline position to be elected as governor of Delta State in 2023.

Speaking in Ughelli, the team noted that as a man that is endowed with the capacity to provide good governance to Deltans, Gbagi knows what to put in place to make Delta state an investment hub in African.

As dinstict political Aspirant for the Governorship 2023 Gbagi is not the kind of politician who will get there and begin to gather wealth for yourself but to industrialize Delta State and for the creation of jobs for and economic opportunities.

Gbagi and Delta 2023

So far, out of those who have indicated interest to contest the governorship election in 2023, only one stands out in view of his visible track records which sets him aside from his contemporaries. It is however embarrassing that some whose foot prints are yet to be seen in their constituencies, and do not have the requisite competence or what takes to win such elections are warming up to indicate interest to contest.




What is even more disturbing is the fact that these persons are present appointees of the state government without the required financial wherewithal to slug it out with the opposition party, All Progressives Congress (APC), to ensure a win at the polls.

Other considerations which they do not meet are those anchored on their contributions to the development of their immediate communities and how much they've done to improve the lives of citizens in the state.

No doubt, some of them will be put to shame at the poll, particularly those planted to disempower opponents whose status or position stands a threat to their devious scheming.

Gbagi's support and contribution towards the growth of the PDP since its inauguration in 1999 attests to his commitment and sacrifice made over the years as a reliable party man.




When the cry of hunger caused by the lockdown ravaged the homes of Deltans, Kenneth Gbagi rose to the occasion as the first and only business mogul and politician who used his personal money to buy food items of various kinds as palliatives across the 25 local government areas of Delta State.

He went as far as paying the bills of patients in various hospitals and also provided money to cover surgical costs for sick people who are with chronic ailments. The masses are easily satisfied. They require jobs and stability to make them happy.

Gbagi's empathy for humanity has manifested severally in appeals to the federal government to intensify efforts and contain incessant killings in Southern Kaduna, the attacks of Boko Haram and the Fulani herdsmen as well as the evils perpetrated by bandits in the Northern region of the country. This also included appeals on behalf of victims of flooding in several communities in Delta State.

Kenneth Gbagi's role as a former Minister of State for Education went beyond the functions and activities of the ministry. He spent time to keep watch on the infrastructure which the federal government situated in his constituency and Delta State.




He also worked assiduously to see that the Federal University of Petroleum Resources (FUPRE) Ugbomro-Effurun was commissioned for learning and equipped with required facilities and equipment for smooth take off. He objected to the relocation of the Petroleum Training Institute (PTI) Effurun to Kaduna. To further demonstrate that he is one whose tenure as governor will not be regretted, he came home with the approval of Government Girls College to Oginibo, an Urhobo town in Delta State.

Going by the above accounts, those who misunderstood or were misinformed of the saga at the Signatious Hotel, Effurun, appear skeptical in giving him maximum support towards his governorship ambition. Such persons in their interest should have a reset of their impressions, especially as the truth and reasons for such allegations have been exposed as the handiwork of political blackmailers.

Kenneth Gbagi's lifestyle exudes love and empathy for his people and therefore can never be associated with such acts of inhumanity as portrayed in the molestation allegations against him.

Also, if he is said to be prudent or stern in handling his businesses or enterprises, he should not be castigated or blamed because most of the ailing or abandoned industries of both the state and the federal government were reduced to nothing as a result of mismanagement.

Apparently, Kenneth Gbagi's opponents in the governorship race are aware that his credentials towards winning the race are unbeatable. Therefore, a competition as this, requires the ability to campaign or convince the electorate and to also showcase what they've done to make the masses support their aspiration.
