He warned that the state would be in anarchy if CPFN and PFN allows someone who is not schooled and lacks entrepreneurial mind to rule over the State and if the current challenges are not addressed by 2023.

“Delta state was better in all ramifications. Call it education, industry, employment. In everything, we were ahead. Anybody in Delta who gets anything, got it out of merit.

“Before now, we don’t have godfathers unlike the other states but because of our superior brain power, we rose to become first among equals in Nigeria.

good percentage of our wealth is invested in Delta State. I have just put in a factory of about N22. 4 billion on Warri/Sapele road that we are going to commission any moment from now, I will invite you people to come.

“I am happy that all of you here today one way or the other, you go to my property to trade in Robinson Gbagi Plaza. There is nobody who is contesting governorship in Delta State that has two per cent of the industries or businesses that I have done in Delta State, check your records.

“So, if a man says he wants to govern you and all that he has is a peep into your money, the money of Delta State, is for all of us, it is our money.

“I just believe that I know what to do, I just believe that I can fix Delta State. If 34 years ago, I built Robinson Gbagi Plaza on Deco Road, at that time I knew we had a problem, I will do it again.

“I take Ughelli north alone in my first year, Ughelli north will give me N60 billion in revenue as generated income to Delta State, were I to reestablish Score Lager Beer, Limca, Sparkling and many other industries that are dead today.

“Ughelli north is ripe to create a lot more industries. I will put a Floor Mill in Ughelli North. If my Floor Mill produces 4-5 million of Indomie packets and Spaghetti, I will sell to the whole country and African countries through my Warri ports and I will double in two years my income in Ughelli north. Local governments must be meant to look like State”, he added.
