Over time, he has proven this, even when he was the<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">governor of the state for eight years. In fact, this is the kind of leader<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Nigerians need to move the nation forward, he said.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">He further stated that \u201cIt is only the Itsekiri ethnic nationality that<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">has not produced a senator to represent the district since 1999. In the<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">interest of equity and fair play, this should be our turn without any<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">arguments. It is time to prove that Itsekiri people are not made to<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">deliberately play the second fiddle to the other tribes.\u201d<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\u201cItsekiri also had two federal constituencies, where Late Hon. Vincent<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Jemide and Late Hon. Sunny Dabor represented them. The two federal<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">constituencies were to be reduced to one when Chief Chamberlain Abeki from<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Patani LGA, was appointed as national commissioner into the then Federal<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Electoral Commission, FEDECO,\u201d\u00a0 he revealed.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">In a related development, Pa Daniel Pessu, a former Delta State lawmaker<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">who is 96 years old now, has declared his support for the former governor,<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Emmanuel Uduaghan senatorial bid.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">2019: Itsekiri Endorses Uduaghan For Senate<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Speaking on behalf of six of the 30 surviving former lawmakers in the<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">state, Pa Daniel who represented Warri South constituency in the then<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Bendel State House of Assembly between 1979 and 1983 thanks Dr. Uduaghan<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">for taking care of them while he was governor of the state. He also prayed<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">for his success at the polls in 2019.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">From 1979 till the current dispensation, five senators have represented<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Delta South Senatorial District. Out of these five, two were from Isoko<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">(Senator Stella Omu and Senator Francis Okpozo of blessed memory) and<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">another two were from the Ijaw tribe (Chief E.K Clark and Senator James<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Manager, the incumbent). The first and only senator who was from the<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Itsekiri stock was Chief Franklin O. M\u00a0 Atake in 1979.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Interestingly, the incumbent senator, James Manager, an Ijaw man has been<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">returned to the senate on four occasions consecutively. By the end of<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">2019, James Manager would have spent a total of 16 years in the Red<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Chambers and feelers from the district reveal that the people are tired of<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">his representation, according to many in the state.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">All the ethnic groups feel that being a position for the three groups in<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">the Delta South, either an Isoko or Itsekiri should be favoured for the<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">post this time around.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">From all indications, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan is highly positioned to grab<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">the senate seat considering that he withdrew from the race in 2015 to<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">ensure that peace reigned in the state and he has always maintained that<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">peace was more important than electoral victories.<\/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>The Itsekiri ethnic group in the Niger-Delta has pledged to mobilize grassroots and stakeholders to support the Senatorial bid of immediate-past governor of Delta State, Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan. \u201d&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":61685,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-61684","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
