An Ijaw socio-political group, under the aegis of Egbema Progressives Assembly, has passed a vote of confidence on President Goodluck Jonathan, Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan and the Commissioner representing Itsekiri nation in the board of Delta State Oil Producing Area Development Commission, DESOPADEC, Mr Michael Diden.

In a release in Sapele, Delta State, signed by its leader, a banker and administrator as well as former Warri North Vice-Chairman, Mr Dio Tanga, and the secretary, Mr Christmas Ukugba, the group says its decision was based on the track record of  the trio, despite the fact that their administrations witnessed one of the worst security challenges in the history of the country.” It therefore called on Jonathan, Uduaghan and Deden  to re-contest for the Presidency, Delta South senatorial seat and the membership of Warri North Constituency in the DSHA  at  the 2015 general election.
