Okowa lauding Tinubu
The political axiom that politics is the projection of self interest as public interest is playing out with the former Delta State Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa.
Since his defection to APC, Okowa has been talking out of season, dishing out tons and tons of propaganda.
The vice presidential candidate of PDP in 2023 has been going back to his vomits.
All in the bid to cover the trillions of Naira derivation funds allegedly misappropriated under his watch.
Within the week, Okowa wore the coat of Hitler propaganda minister a la if a lie is told a thousand times, it begins to resemble truth.
Okowa told Nigerians that Tinubu economic reforms were best for the country.
Even the most dimwitted Nigerian would not believe him.
Deltans nay Nigerians know why he defected to APC.
With hardship making Nigerians walking corpses, a former governor would laud the economic policy of such government!
That is why most politicians in the mould of Okowa are flocking to APC.
The greatest enemies of this country are the political elites whose philosophy is to suffocate Nigerians.
It is only a fool or a visitor from outer space that would believe that EFCC is anti graft agency.

Abandoned Projects
Within the week, the Deputy Governor of Delta State, Sir Monday Onyeme inspected the yet to take off agro industrial park at Aboh Ogwashi.
Onyeme spoke glowingly of the benefits of the park.
But he failed to tell Deltans the state of development at the park.
The Pond News understands that the state is becoming a site littered with abandoned projects.
During the Okowa administration, billions of Naira were earmarked for industrial park in Kwale, Ndokwa West LGA.
Okowa promised that the project would attract thousands of jobs.
He even travelled to China to court investors.
Today the people of Kwale are duped as the government pledges exist more in the realm of folklore.
Very close to Aboh Ogwashi Uku, is supposed wildlife park in Ogwashi Uku.
Senator Peter Nwaoboshi was the Commissioner for Agriculture who was in charge of the project.
Billions of Naira for the wildlife park went down the drain .
You don’t need to be a crystal ball gazer to know that the Aboh Ogwashi Uku agro industrial park would end up in the dustbin.
There is lack of accountability and transparency in the governance of the state.

Celebrating Ibori
Recently Chief James Ibori , the former governor of Delta State was the darling of all manners of politicians in the state.
The occasion was the 67 birthday of Ibori.
Even those who wrote him off as political postscript were in the traditional and social media lauding him to high heavens.
It is a reminder of the eternal lines of John F Kennedy: Success has many fathers, failure is an orphan.
Today Ibori is a man who cannot be ignored in Delta State politics as most of the key appointments from the federal government were through the Oghara political icon.
Ibori has not declared publicly for APC but his daughter is in APC.
The body language of Ibori and his closeness to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu speaks volumes.
That is why those in Sheriff Oborevwori camp are jittery.
It could be recalled that time was when Senator Ifeanyi Okowa disdained Ibori forgetting that Ibori was instrumental to him becoming the governor of Delta State.
It would foolhardy for any serious politician in Delta state to forget the insult.
The road to who becomes the governorship candidate of APC is not clear.
If you delude yourself that Ibori would not play a major role, such person shall be sorely disappointed.
