“We are members of PDP and we will vote for the PDP Presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and his Vice Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, Delta PDP Governorship candidate, Rt. Hon Sheriff Oborevwori and his Deputy, Sir Monday Onyeme, Delta South Senatorial candidate, Evang. Michael Diden popularly known as Ejele, SDP candidate for House of Representatives, Isoko Federal Constituency, Hon Dickson Fineboy Ebegbare and SDP candidate for Delta State House of Assembly for Isoko North Constituency, Hon David Okumagba Onajega.”
