The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Igwuruta Ward 12 in Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State has endorsed Mr Opurum Jonathan as its councillorship candidate in the forthcoming local government election.
Jonathan was endorsed at a stakeholders meeting at Igwuruta.
The Chairman, PDP Elders Council in the Ward, Prof. Amaefule Oweh, said the adoption of the councillorship hopeful was based on the existing zoning arrangement in the ward.
Prof. Oweh said the councillorship position had always rotated among the nine communities that make up the ward.
He described the PDP councillorship candidate as a tested young man who will surely bring his wealth of experience to bear on his assignment if elected.
According to him, “with Opurum Jonathan as Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) councillorship candidate, the party will surely win the election in the area”.
Also speaking, the secretary of Ikwerre Local Government Council, Hon. Ikem Obinna, said the councillorship hopeful was first chosen by Umuonogbo community as it is their turn to produce a councillor this time around.
In his speech, the Ward 12 PDP Chairman, Hon. Jonathan Wuse said the party would give the candidate the desired support.
Earlier, Opurum Jonathan had thanked members of the party for the confidence reposed in him, and assured that he would not dissappoint them.
