ANIOMA PEOPLE VOW TO PRODUCE THE NEXT DELTA STATE GOVERNOR.

It was a gathering necessitated by determination and drive when the shakers and movers in Anioma Nation under the umbrella of the Anioma Political Forum(APF) met to express their views at Issele Uku,headquarters of Aniocha North Local Government Area of the state.
The occasion held at the Unity Hall on Friday October 9, 2009 attracted sons and daughters from the nine local governments in Delta North.
Speaking at the occasion, Professor B.I.C Ijeoma told the people that they should strive to unite, nothing that without unity they cannot achieve their aim of producing a governor come 2015.”Unity is strength”, he noted. He also emphasized that one of the reasons for forming Anioma Political Forum was to fight for the governorship of the state in 2015.
“The joy of planting is that people following you will benefit from the harvest”, he said. He added that some of those who started the fight were no longer alive, but acknowledged that a lot has been done. In his words, “the task ahead is great”.
He however stressed that they would honestly support Governor Uduaghan in his second tenure bid, but as soon as he steps down, Anioma must produce the next governor.
Hon. Victor Ochei, member of the State House of Assembly representing Aniocha North also corroborated prof.Ijeoma’s views, nothing that APF had agreed to support Uduaghan for his second tenure, but after that, the governorship comes to Delta North, stressing that anything contrary would result to the dissolution of the state.
He advised the people not to play to the gallery with the name of Uduaghan, stressing that they should unite.” No matter your different names, Anioma is bigger than all”.
Prince Uzor Idabor,in his view said that there was little work left to be done in the Aniocha North, but noted that with unity the goal could be achieved.
Barr. Fred Chijindu Ajidua also admonished the people to shun gossip and bad advice, stating that with patience and unity, Anioma must produce the governor come 2015.It took the black Americans many years to produce Obama,he said.
Giving a vote of thanks, the chairman of Aniocha North Local Government Area,Hon.Mike Jaunty Okwudi thanked everyone for making the occasion colourful.
