O’tega most qualified to be mnister from Delta – ONOKPASA

All Progressives Congress, APC, chieftain in Delta State, Jesutega Onokpasa, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to appoint Delta APC gubernatorial candidate, Olorogun O’tega Emerhor as the Minister from Delta. Addressing newsmen in Warri, yesterday, Onokpasa, who described Emerhor as a gentleman of “inestimable insight and exceptional goodwill” also, asserted that it was Emerhor who first championed the cause of change in Delta and brought diehard Buhari supporters into the APC in the state, including my humble self.’” Insisting that Emerhor, having never held any post in government before is therefore a true technocrat without any blemish, Onokpasa opined that Emerhor “is most qualified to be a minister according to any standard of measurement.” He said: “I implore Mr. President not to abandon the few of us who bravely stood to be counted on his side, sticking out our necks for the APC and indeed risking our lives for his candidacy in the Niger Delta. All through the struggle, our one and only true motivator, mobiliser, inspirer and undisputed leader was O’tega who made us realize that as genuine Nigerian patriots, opposing former President Jonathan and supporting Buhari is not inconsistent with our status as true Niger Deltans.”
