The tale of how he stabbed ex-GovernorJames Ibori, his erstwhile godfather, in the back because of power is still fresh in our memory.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cMany of us know how Okowa emerged as Vice Presidential candidate which he was not meant to be because few of us never wanted him because we believed he did not have the capacity and experience to become vice president.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Frank said he was one of those who doubted Okowa&#8217;s competence and trustworthiness. Hence his(Frank&#8217;s) preference for Nyesom Wike the current Minister of FCT.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8220;I&#8217;m one of those who felt strongly that the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, was a better candidate than Okowa\u00a0 as at that time. But because of the interest of some leaders and elders of the party at that time who were\u00a0 at Okowa\u2019s behest , they were able to lobby and pressurized Atiku to pick him.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cTherefore, Okowa lacks the rectitude to play victim or feign regret over a job and position he desperately wanted.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cWe are still of the opinion that if Wike had emerged in place of Okowa in 2023 as running mate to Atiku, perhaps PDP would be in government at the national level today.\u00a0 But we lost out apparently because of the choice of this ungrateful Okowa who never brought\u00a0 real value or political capital to the table.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cEven as a sitting governor and a vice-presidential candidate, his party, PDP, lost Delta state during the last presidential election and because of his emptiness and lack of electoral value his present voyage would equally not benefit the APC.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cI dare say that with his lack of capacity and value, Okowa would remain a liability because even with him in APC, the party would still lose Delta state in 2027 like PDP did in 2023 with Okowa was a sitting governor.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Frank who is currently the United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP) Ambassador to East Africa and Middle East,\u00a0 said,\u00a0 with the desperation of President Tinubu to remain in office in 2027, APC will accept even criminals into its fold.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cWith the likes of Okowa joining APC, it shows the party is now a dumping ground for looters. Okowa did not join the APC because he believed Asiwaju has delivered or that the party is working but because of his atrocities now being investigated by the EFCC.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cHowever, Nigerians and the international community will watch if the anti-graft agency will soft pedal on his probe because he is now singing: \u2018Tinubu, On Your Mandate We Shall Stand,\u2019\u201d he added.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Frank said Atiku was oblivious of Okowa\u2019s treachery when he picked him adding that the choice even affected his (Atiku&#8217;s) long standing relationship with former Governor James Ibori who had advised\u00a0 him against the choice of Okowa.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cIn fact, Atiku did not know that behind Okowa\u2019s calm mien was\u00a0 a betrayer and an ingrate. It is only God and posterity that will judge Okowa at the end of the day for making Atiku lose the 2023 presidential election because of his unpopularity,\u201d he declared.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>He further added that neither Atiku as a person nor\u00a0 PDP as a party would miss Okowa now that he and\u00a0 his former godson,\u00a0 now Governor of Delta State, Hon Sheriff Oborevwori are holding the\u00a0 brooms and\u00a0 dancing shamelessly to APC rhythms.<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Oscar Okhifo Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressive Congress (APC), now\u00a0 chieftain of People Democratic party (PDP) Timi Frank, said on Wednesday that the former two-term&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":89409,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-118142","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exclusive"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
