2015 Guber Race: Delta PDP Chairman Blasts SSG Over Power Shift....Says He Should Shut up His Mouth

Left Gov. Uduaghan, Centre Chief Peter Nwaoboshi

In reminiscent of the Pa Clark lashing of Elder Orubebe sometime last year over a comment accredited to the Ijaw born Minister for Niger Delta Affairs over his purported governorship ambition, the State chairman of the PDP and close ally of Chief EK Clark, Chief (Barr)Peter Nwaoboshi has lashed out at Comrade Macaulay Ovouzourie, the SSG, for what the PDP Chairman considered a careless and immature statement.
 
Comrade Macaulay had in a statement published in a National newspaper alleged that he was not aware of any agreement between the Anioma and other parts of the state for a power shift. A statement highly considered by the Anioma born state party chairman as reckless and capable of heating up the polity in the state.

Chief Nwaoboshi who described the comment as “provocative, in an interview stated that he had received several phone calls since the SSG made the statement, which was published in a national newspaper on Monday.
He said, “I want to say categorically here that the SSG should shut up his mouth and face the job the governor gave to him to do as SSG. In the first place, he has no right to speak because he is not a party functionary. He has never held party position in his life from ward to the national level. Also, he is not a foundation member of the party, but was brought in as a journalist in Asaba.
“He is just trying to make himself relevant. If he has political ambition, he should be bold to declare it and not to charge the political atmosphere with such provocative statements in the media.”
