Gbagi a Presidential Material: Bamanga Tukur Sends Strong Message to Deltans in General

Bamanga Tukur is an elder statesman, prominent businessman, and astute political leader who has served this country creditably in many capacities as a former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Chairman, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, some time ago described Chief Kenneth Gbagi, as presidential material.

Tukor was sending a strong message to the people of Delta State that Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi is doing the state's favor by stepping out to correct and reposition the state.

Tukor exemplified what our elder statesmen should do to save the state from collapsing. He was firm, forthright, and stable in his position which he knew was true to the fact that Gbagi was most qualified to contest the 2023 Gubernatorial election and govern Delta State.

Tukor said; “In your rights, you are presidential material; so I want you to bear in mind your entrepreneurial acumen as a provider of employment across the country in whatever position you do in life.

“I also commend you for seeking the office of governor of your state, Delta State, which I know is to render quality service to your people.

“I, however, urge you as you have done all these years not to leave the party and do more to see that the party becomes a uniting platform for all stakeholders and continue to deliver good governance to the citizens,” Tukur noted.

The industrialist enjoined the fourth estate of the realm “to stand up in holding into account leaders who have done the right things by praising them and reporting as it is those who are committing crimes and doing the wrong things for citizens to evaluate.”
