By Festus Ahon

UGHELLI—AS the jostling for who succeeds Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta State in 2015 thickens, a political pressure group, Delta United for Obuh, has promised to mobilise support for the emergence of Mr. Tony Obuh as the next governor the state, saying “the big masquerade” has come.

The group, in a statement by Chief Ayiri Emami, Olorogun Jaro Egbo and Chief Monday Igbuya stressed the need for the governorship to move to Delta North in 2015, adding that “for equity’s sake, Delta North should have it; Delta Central and South have taken their turns.”
