Warri: New Voice in Delta Governorship

Dr. Andrew Warri
Since the return of democracy in 1999, Delta State has been known as a state that is meticulous in the election of its leaders , saddled with the responsibilities of handling issues at local , state and federal levels . This is responsible for presentation of high caliber , experienced and intelligent leaders at the aforementioned arms of government which has made the state to earn an enviable reputation as one of the best developed states in the country today. It is as a result of the need to present the best that they are opposed to candidates ’ imposition by godfathers, a trend that has now flourished in the nation ’s polity.
Although at the last count no fewer than thirty governorship aspirants have declared their intention to contest, but the attempt to produce the best for the leadership of the state has led to a deep search by the people for the right candidate. Among those presently considered to foot the bill is a man considered to represent the true yearnings of the people of Delta State –a young and humble medical doctor and seasoned administrator.

TAKE OFF YOUR MASK, BE YOU!

Many of our youths have contributed to marginalising themselves in terms of being part of the leadership of our nation. No one ever hands over power to another, on a platter of gold.

So far, most of them are hungry for money, quick money, so that's what they get. A youth population, especially in our region, that reasons only along the lines of religion, tribe and money, is only thinking the way our leaders have manipulated and conditioned them to think. Such youths, who cannot think for themselves, are not mature, they are unstable, unreliable and they are not ready for leadership.
