THE PATRIOTS a pressure group made of vibrate young intellectuals in Isoko Delta State has called on the Peoples Democrtic Party PDP to consider the Isoko Nation for the post of the Deputy Governor of Delta State in the 2015 governorship election.
The statement released by the group read as follow;
''The Patriots wishes to congratulate PDP again for the successful gubernatorial primaries, and its flag bearer, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Okowa.
While The Patriots respects all the other ethnic groups/Nationalities jostling and claiming rights to the Deputy Governor’s slot due to their various contributions towards the Okowa project, the Patriots knows for a fact that the Isoko Nation also made its contribution to the Okowa project too. We are equal partners in the actualization of the Okowa 2015 Project.
Senator Dr Ifeanyi Okowa needs our prayers right now in making the right choice of a running mate. That right choice should be made from Isoko. The choice of an Isoko Deputy Governor is predicated on the twin principles of equity and federal character. These principles have remained the guiding principles in not only the compass of the PDP but is also a constitutional requirement. The Isoko nation has in the past, and will in the future, define the deciding vote in any guber election in Delta State.
While we respect the aspirations of other ethnic nationalities on this very important issue, we wish to place it on record that we have supported the Itsekiris and Ijaws in achieving their desires of becoming two-term Governor and four-term Senator. We are willing and dependable partners and we request an effortless reciprocity from Southern Delta.
What is right is right, in the Delta South Senatorial zone, Isoko Nation has always given their support to the other ethnic nationalities ( Ijaw and Itsekiri) that make up the senatorial zone. It is only fair that they reciprocate our kind gesture. If not for anything, Senator James Manager should remember how Isoko sacrificed her daughter for him in 2003, and join in the crusade to do the needful for the Isoko Nation.
Even though Okowa may have made a perceived deal, let just reasoning prevail, and the right decisions in favour of the Isoko Nationality be made with respect to the Deputy Governor slot.
In conclusion, we enjoin all Isoko sons and daughters to say a word of prayer to GOD Almighty in the next critical 48 hours for our esteemed party leaders, the party gubernatorial flag bearer and those in the forefront of the negotiations, for GODS guidance and favour on the part of the Isoko Nation towards the actualization of her request''.
