The governorship candidate of the Labour Party in Delta State, Chief Great Ogboru, has said that there will be trouble if the February 28 election in the state is manipulated.

Ogboru, who was addressing a mega rally at Ughelli, on Thursday, recalled that the people of the state had lived with situations where elections were rigged.

“But we know that God’s time is the best. This is the time set by God,” he said and burst into a local song, “If Ogboru no win yawa go dey, if Ogboru no win, yawa go dey,” meaning there will be trouble if Ogboru does not win.

He promised to raise the standard of governance in the state such that people without vision would no longer govern the state.

He said Delta State had been turned into a state where the government could no longer provide the basic necessities of life like water, electricity, health care, education and good roads.

On his vision for Delta State, Ogboru said, “We shall start by restoring your dignity and you will no longer be the thrashing floor.

“You will be able to look at them eyeball to eyeball. All the people of Delta will become winners and will enjoy good schools, good hospitals and better pay. Our roads will be safe again. Our streets and homes will be safe again; criminality of any kind will not be tolerated.”

The LP candidate said kidnapping and armed robbery held sway in the state because those in government kidnapped and robbed the people of their votes.

He said while the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidature was up for sale, the All Progressives Congress candidature were a counterfeit.

“If the APC candidate does not step down, he will know the loneliness of a long distance runner,” he said.

The LP candidate for the Delta-Central senatorial district, Chief Ovie Omo-Agege, said he would ensure that the Urhobo got their dues in the scheme of things in Nigeria if elected.

Omo-Agege said the people were tired of the PDP government in the state and had massively asked for the enthronement of Ogboru as governor.
