Delta State Governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, Monday, said only God could stop him from being the running mate to the presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
Okowa who spoke through the State Commissioner for Information, Mr. Charles Aniagwu during a press conference in Asaba, held nobody could block his chances of becoming, adding he has contributed positively to the growth of the party, which he does not brag about, as a true party man.
The governor who was reacting to speculations that the former governor of the state, Chief James Ibori, was secretly working against his chances to be Atiku’s running mate, said the rumors were the handiwork of fifth columnists.
