Opobo/Nkoro Councillors Drum Support For Amaechi, Dakuku
Barely a month after endorsing Dakuku Adol Peterside for Andoni/Opobo-Nkoro House of Representative slot come 2011, councillors of Opobo/Nkoro Legislative Assembly led by Hon. Atedo Sam Sam Jaja have moved to concretise their support for Hon. Peterside and Rivers State Governor, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi.
On Christmas eve, the councillors unveiled three gigantic billboards in support of the second term ambition of Rt. Hon. Amaechi as the governor of Rivers State and the bid for Hon. Dakuku Peterside to become the next member of the House of Representative for Andoni/Opobo-Nkoro Federal Constituency in 2011.
The three billboards located at Kono Waterside, Opobo and Nkoro were unveiled and handed over to The Real Choice for Change Campaign Organisation led by its Coordinator-General, Hon. Sampson Egop.
At the short but impressive unveiling and handover ceremony at Nkoro, Hon. Atedo Jaja stated that having seen the monumental achievements of governor Amaechi and the sterling leadership style of Hon. Peterside, it was only timely, expedient and reciprocal to offer the duo the unalloyed support of members of the Opobo/Nkoro Legislative Assembly.
“The aspiration by our governor to go for a second term and that of Hon. Dakuku Peterside to run for the House of Representatives are not occasioned by any pecuniary cravings but borne out of a very genuine desire to render self-less and qualitative service to the people of Rivers State,” Jaja declared.
In his speech while receiving the billboard at Nkoro on behalf of Governor Amaechi and Hon. Dakuku Peterside, the Coordinator-General of the latter’s Campaign Organisation, Hon. Sampson Egop stated that the donation by the representatives of the people at the grassroots level in Opobo/Nkoro Local Government was an indication that the aspirants were the choice of the people of the LGA.
“By this donation of very beautiful billboards with clear message of support for Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi and Hon. Dakuku Peterside shows that the generality of the people of Opobo/Nkoro LGA are standing with these illustrious sons of the land as we go into the 2011 general elections,” Egop declared.
Earlier, the campaign team had paid a courtesy call on the Regent of Nkoro clan, Chief Michael Okunta who said that the people of Nkoro would always support the aspirations of Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi and Hon. Dakuku Peterside.
