Delta state has concluded local government election in the state. The election was conducted by the Delta State Independent Electoral Commission (DSIEC).
The results of the election were announced by DSIEC on Sunday and the elected chairmen and their vice were sworn in on Monday March 8, 2021. People’s Democratic Party (PDP) cleared all the seats living no one for the opposition.
Here are the facts I must drive into your head with regards to the outcome of the election between the APC and PDP in Delta state.
1. Delta is a PDP state. This is non-negotiable
2. The footsoldiers of PDP in Delta across the 25 LGAs can dwarf APC in all elections.
3. APC in Delta state is one of the most disunited groups in Nigeria.
4. APC leaders in Delta are living like cat and rat
5. They have never once campaigned in any elections, maybe they are afraid they may not win
6. PDP members were seen campaigning from wars to ward in the state
7. PDP in Delta has so much money to share to voters as a way of inducement.
