By Ikodudu Kingsley

Following the directive of the State PDP Chairman, Olorogun Barr. Kingsley Esiso, directing all wards PDP to hold stakeholders meeting, the PDP Owhe Ward6 held an extended PDP Ward meeting of party leaders, political appointees, ward executives, and party members today, at the residence of the PDP Ward chairman, Mr. Omosioni Onoyiwita, in Otor-Owhe.

The meeting which was well attended by party members and leaders provided an avenue for members to speak their minds, as aggrieved party members were appealed to, to sheath their swords and work for the victory of the party in the 2023 general election.

Declaring the meeting open, the Party chairman, Mr. Omosioni Onoyiwita, said the purpose of calling for this meeting today was for party members to brainstorm as we draw closer to the beginning of the ward-to-ward campaigns in Isoko.

The party chairman pleaded with those who are still angry not to leave the party no matter the magnitude of their grievances but rather they should explore the conflict resolution mechanisms laid down by the party in seeking redress to any issue(s) bothering them.

"I want to state here today that, I frown at the attitude of some of our party members who are engaging in anti-party activities in the ward, we will no longer condone such behaviors in the party, as such offensive behaviors are capable of destructing the party.

Hon. Richard Isagba, the Owhe Ward6 Campaign Coordinator and member of the Delta State Campaign Council, while addressing the audience, charged the people to be committed party members as the task at hand is not a one-man task and will require a genuine commitment to achieving it.

"Yes, I know there are pockets of issues here and there in the ward, especially from the last suspension meted on one of us which have created bitterness and led some people astray, but we are working daily behind the scene to ensure that those who have gone astray as a result of some of the internal issues within the party are brought back to the PDP fold amicably, as we can not allow the issues on ground to fester on and ruin us as party men.

 

"I want to plead with all of us here today, to start promoting activities that will foster peace, unity, and harmony in this ward, as this is the only way we can grow and collectively bring development to our people.

"Sincerely, I want to appeal to all those who are still aggrieved in the ward to put outside their grievances and let's work together to deliver the PDP 5 over 5, and most importantly to deliver Pastor Engr. Jonathan Ajirioghene Ukodhiko, the PDP HOR Candidate, Isoko Federal Constituency because he's one of us and any other house of reps campaign is anti Owhe and an aberration from our norms as sons and daughters of Owhe.

"This meeting is a preparatory one towards the ward-to-ward campaigns, to enable all the campaign's committees set up in the ward to hit the ground running. 

"I am confident the PDP will win the ward massively because Owhe ward6 comprising of Otor-Owhe and Akiewhe, is a PDP ward and the spirit of our former leader and brother, Late Rt. Hon. Tim Owhefere will be angry with us if we do otherwise.

Others who spoke in the same vein were Hon. G.O.T Itobi, Sir Simeon Efenudu, Hon. Benson Obogu, Rt. Navy Capt. Hermans Efenudu, Hon. Okoro Harryman, Chief John Araka, and yours sincerely.

Some of the leaders of the ward present were; Sir Simeon Efenudu, Hon. Richard Richie Isagba, Chief John Araka, Hon. G.O.T Itobi, Rt. Navy Capt. Hermans Efenudu, Mr. Omosioni Oniyiwita, Hon Benson Ubogu, Hon. Harryman Okoro, Comr. Frank Alordiah,   Comr. Ikodudu Kingsley, Comr. Orevaoghene Precious Efenudu, Hon.
