Delta state governorship candidate of he Social Democratic Party SDP, Olorogun Barrister Kenneth Gbagi has said that the people of Delta should hold him accountable should he fail to fulfill his electoral promises to Deltans.

Olorogun Gbagi who received Muslim leaders from 21 local government areas of the state in Oginibo his country home, said he will never rescind his promise to the people of Delta after emerging governor of the state.

The SDP governorship candidate who was endorsed by the Muslim leaders led by Muhammad Okotie, chairman of Council of Imams and Clerics in Delta, noted that his administration will build enabling environment for all residents both indigenes and none indigenes so as to enable them ply their trade and grow the economy of the state.

He told the Muslim leaders that Delta is the richest state in Nigeria but due to corrupt leaders who are running the affairs of the state, people are suffering and the funds accruing to the state are frittered away.

He said years back, businesses and companies were thriving in the state but because of the attitude of succeeding governments, most businesses have failed and others abandoned.

Gbagi, an industrialist of repute, noted that his administration would be far removed from the pattern of the present government, saying Deltans should hold him accountable if he fails within one year to fulfill his promise to Delta people and other residents.

“I will revive all the ailing industries within one year. The state is dying. We must clean up the mess in Delta. I cannot lie to you. Whatever I tell you today I will do it”, Gbagi insisted.

He continued: “Because of the poverty level in Delta, I have decided to run a free education up to university level for all our children. Between Oginibo and Oghara, we can make N100bn a year. I’m a. business man. I know what to do. Once you have a governor that everyone trusts, everything will fall in shape.

“The bitumen we have in Sapele can tar roads in Delta. Over 42 percent of money coming to Delta state is stolen and diverted. They do not know how to use. one Naira to make two Naira.

“I want to assure every Deltan and all residents that what is due to everyone will be given to them. I’m not a tribalist. Whoever can do any particular job at every given time will do it. In my government there won’t be discrimination. All we needed is the glory and success of Delta state.”

He told the Muslim leaders that he was not discriminated against when he was in Lagos, hence he succeeded in building one of the tallest structures in Lagos. He noted that every opportunity Lagos indigenes enjoy he also enjoys. Hence, he will run an all-inclusive government in. Delta state.

Chairman of Council of Imams and Clerics in Delta state, Muhammad Okotie, had earlier told Gbagi that 21 Imams from <span;><span;>21 local government areas in the state and other members formed part of the entourage to Gbagi’s country home.

He told him that his governorship ambition is a project they will all key into because Delta needed a government that will meet the needs of all residents and make life meaningful for all.

He said any project he puts his hands, he must ensure it <span;><span;><span;>succeeds. He said there’s a large group of Moslems across parts of Delta state whom he described as the NASFATs, saying these NASFATS are ready to work. for the emergence of Gbagi.

“We are Moslems and when we say something, we don’t back out. Watch out, if you see this gathering with any other candidate, then am a liar. I told Okowa that there is no road linking Agbor to Aso Rock. He should leave Asaba ànd go back to Agbor.

“We are not here to look at your compound. We are here with selected people. We will talk to our brothers and sisters so that they will know that they must key into this project. By the grace of Allah we will mobilise for you.

We are not forced to be here. We are here to help realise the dream of your governorship ambition. We are with you,’ the Imam said
