Renowned political economist and resources development expert, Prof. Pat Utomi on Sunday assembled Delta North All Progressive Congress (APC) leaders for a consultative meeting towards his governorship aspiration in 2019.
Daily Trust gathered that Utomi was persuaded by some leaders of APC at the national and state caucuses to consider to run for the governorship of Delta state in 2019 and bring his vast experience and goodwill to bear in the governance of the state.
Delta state has been under the control of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) since 1999 till date and presently governed by Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, from Ika federal constituency of Delta North district.
He won’t beat Okowa. Ibori is in town and when he wasn’t in town he was running things. Can he drop billions to rig it in his favour?
