Bayelsa Gov’ship: Though Obidient, I’m Not Campaigning Under Peter Obi – LP Candidate, Eradiri
Bayelsa gubernatorial candidate under the Labour Party ( LP)
Udengs Eradiri has said although he is Obidient, he is not campaigning under the presidential candidate of the party in the February 25 election, Peter Obi.
Eradiri made this known when he was asked if Peter Obi was going to influence his campaign during an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today.
He said that he was campaigning because of the issues that bedevilled the people of the state
“I have a secretariat, I am campaigning and I have a structure. If they come with 20 cars I come with two. But I have come with a stronger message and I am communicating with the people. I give a summary of my plan to every community I go to.
“I am not campaigning under Peter Obi. I am campaigning because of the issues that bedevil our people in Bayelsa. Only a Bayelsan that understands the issues can deal with them,”.
“Yes, I am an Obedient. Why? Because I believe in integrity, capacity and competence. These are the core value of the Obedients. But I am not contesting because of Obi, no I am not. I am contesting because of the issues in my state. It will help me because he is a man people love and respect which he has come to Bayelsa to express that,” he stated.
Eradiri also stated that the young people in the state are the structure he needs to win the election.
He added, “Young people are the structures that work with us in this election. Those who do business in Yenagoa are the structures.”
