The Executive Chairman of Isoko South Local Government Area of Delta State, Hon. (Comr.) Friday Ovoke Warri, has declared that the council is poised to challenge other local government areas in the state in the race to deliver the highest number of votes for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Warri stated this on Thursday when the Delta State Coordinator of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors, Rt. Hon. Funkekeme Solomon, led members of the organisation on an interactive and sensitisation visit to Isoko South.
The council chairman said Isoko South had the votes and political capacity to surpass its previous electoral performance, stressing that unity, grassroots mobilisation and effective engagement with voters would be critical to achieving the target.
“We will challenge any local government area in Delta State to produce the highest votes. Isoko South has the votes, and we have done it before. With stronger mobilisation, unity and the collective efforts of our people, we can increase our votes beyond what we recorded in previous elections,” Warri said.
He urged party supporters and members of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors to take the policies and programmes of government to the grassroots and ensure that residents were adequately informed about the impact of the reforms of the Federal Government and the achievements of the Delta State Government.
Warri commended Governor Sheriff Oborevwori for his commitment to the development of Delta State and said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s economic reforms, including the removal of fuel subsidy, were aimed at repositioning the nation’s economy.
He, however, stressed the need for government resources to translate into tangible development and improved welfare for the people.
“We must remain united, engage our people respectfully and mobilise effectively across our wards and communities. Isoko South has the capacity to set a new electoral record, and I believe that if we work together, we will achieve it,” he said.
Warri also charged members of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors to sustain grassroots mobilisation and promote peaceful political engagement across the local government.
Earlier, the Delta State Coordinator of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors, Rt. Hon. Funkekeme Solomon, said the sensitisation visit was designed to strengthen the organisation’s grassroots structures and equip members with adequate information on the policies and programmes of the Tinubu administration at the federal level and the Oborevwori administration in Delta State.
Solomon described the success of both administrations as being in the collective interest of the people and urged members to effectively communicate their achievements to the electorate.
Also speaking, the representative of Isoko South Constituency I, Hon. Bino Owende, expressed confidence that the APC would record an improved electoral performance in the area.
He said, “If we were able to do well in previous elections and win despite certain factors limiting our strength, we should expect greater victory for the APC in Isoko South.”
In his welcome address, the Coordinator of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors in Isoko South, Odio Obaro Godspower, described unity as the organisation’s greatest strength.
“Our strength lies in our unity. Through cooperation, mutual respect and collective commitment, we can achieve the electoral success our party deserves. There is no division among us; rather, there is a shared determination to mobilise every eligible voter and ensure victory for the APC,” he said.
Odio Obaro said the sensitisation exercise also provided an opportunity to strengthen the group’s grassroots network and improve its capacity to communicate the policies, achievements and vision of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Governor Sheriff Francis Oborevwori and other APC leaders to the people.
