Delta ZLP Produces Guber Candidate, Vows To Sack Oborevwori
The Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) has produced its governorship candidate, Comr. Emeka Nkwoala (JP), for the 2027 Delta State elections.
Nkwoala is a former chairman of the Labour Party (LP) in the state.
He emerged during the party’s governorship congress held in Asaba on Wednesday, an event supervised by officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
In his acceptance speech, Nkwoala said the cardinal objectives of his administration would be achieved in collaboration with his National Assembly and House of Representatives candidates.
He expressed confidence that, with his wealth of experience and stewardship in the ZLP, he would challenge and defeat the incumbent Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, in a free and fair election.
According to him, although Governor Oborevwori is performing well in infrastructural development, especially in attracting Julius Berger to construct roads, bridges, and flyovers, the ZLP has adopted a strategic agenda to surpass his record.
“There is no doubt that Governor Sheriff Oborevwori has performed well in infrastructural delivery. But considering the resources accruing to the state, I shall do far better because, unlike him, I have no godfather; I have God as my father.”
He said the party’s House of Assembly candidate, Sir Aghogho Green Meretin, a former Majority Leader of Ethiope West LGA and grassroots mobiliser, would support effective legislative engagement.
He assured that the party would entrench a free education system to enhance the future of the state, improve access to quality healthcare delivery, and usher in a new era of road infrastructure development in Delta State.
