With reference to the recent prattling paper weight story written by SSA on Media to Sen. Ned Nwoko captioned “Senator Peter Nwaoboshi Chickens out on 2027 Delta North Senatorial election”, it is obvious that he did not read and comprehend the full details of Senator Nwoboshi’s interview. Senator Nwaoboshi is widely known as Mr. Equity and an encyclopedia of Delta State politics.
Senator Nwaoboshi is a man who politics runs in his blood. In his recent interview he made mention of Aniocha- Oshimili doing their twelve years at the senate come 2027 just like Senator Osakwe from Ndokwa nation did twelve years in the senate and Senator Okowa from Ika nation did four years in senate and eight years as governor . I want to state categorically that this is not the first time Senator Nwaoboshi is fighting for equity in Delta State.
It is on record that when Nwaoboshi was a commissioner under Governor James Ibori, he was the only person who has the guts to oppose him when he wanted another man from central to succeed him and he sacrifice his position(Commissioner) because he always stand for the truth, fairness and equity.
Senator Nwaoboshi also did same when Governor Ifeanyi Okowa was having a political romance with Delta South to succeed him. It was only Nwaoboshi that raised an alarm and told the whole world that it was the turn of Delta Central to produce the next governor and today governor sheriff is a beneficiary of equity.
In your write up you talked of Senator Osakwe from Ndokwa nation spending twelve years and Nwaoboshi eight years in which case Senator Ned Nwoko has not started his first term,this shows you lack comprehension of the interview because the number of years spent by Sen. Nwaoboshi and Sen. Ned Nwoko from the same federal Constituency equals twelve years come 2027.
Moreover, going by Senator Nwaoboshi’s interview, he said that if the political elders of Delta North want to jettison the zoning system, He is prepared to contest the election against Ned Nwoko or any other person, knowing that he is financially, Politically and Educationally superior to him and also has more acceptance as true Anioma Son. Besides in 2019, Senator Peter Nwaoboshi defeated Ned Nwoko in PDP senatorial primaries and defeated him too at the Supreme court when he challenged his victory, Ned Nwoko has never defeated Senator Nwaoboshi in any election genuinely .
I want Comrade Kay Enuenwosu to understand that the wide spread acceptance and the patronage Senator Nwaoboshi is enjoying today is because of long political profile and his good work as a senator. He has been a voice of the voiceless in Delta State and Nigeria. The writer must learn that the only sure way to success, is through hard work that is people Centric ,unless you are not in politics.
In a nutshell you should learn to be humble and respect the voice of our Political authority and the father of Equity in Delta State. ‘ONYE KALI ONYE AKAGA’. Political Oracle
