Ahead of Saturday’s governorship election, elder statesman and leader of Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), Edwin Clark, has given his blessing to Ken Pella, the candidate of Labour Party (LP) in Delta State.
This happened just as Pela said the chance of LP winning Delta State on Saturday is very bright, adding that the Independent National Electoral Commission acted with impunity by not transmitting presidential election results as it is mandated to do.
“My hope, whoever becomes the governor of Delta State, my home state, should be a straightforward person, competent, respected and good character, not person that will embezzle our money at the expense of the state. Nothing can prevent me from giving my blessing, so, God will therefore guide you.”
