Guber candidate for ZLP in Delta emerges, vows to win Oborevwori

The 2027 gubernatorial candidate of the Zenith Labour Party, ZLP, in Delta State, Emeka Nkwoala has emerged. 

He was the former chairman of the Labour Party, LP, in the state.

Nkwoala won his party’s mandate during the governorship congress in Asaba supervised by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC officials.

In his acceptance speech, Nkwoala said the cardinal objective of his administration would be achieved in collaboration with his National Assembly and House of Representatives candidates.

He boasted that with his wealth of experience and stewardship in the ZLP, he would challenge and win the incumbent Governor Sheriff Oborevwori in a free and fair election.

According to him, even though Governor Oborevwori is doing well in infrastructural development, especially by attracting Julius Berger to construct roads, bridges and flyovers, ZLP has adopted a strategic agenda to surpass his record.

“No doubt, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori has performed well in infrastructural delivery. But considering the resources accruing to the state, I shall do far better because, unlike him, I have no godfather but I have God as a Father.”

He said the party’s House of Assembly candidate, Sir Aghogho Green Meretin, who was the former Majority Leader of Ethiope West LGA and a grassroots mobilizer, would assist with effective legislation.

He assured the party would entrench a free-education system to enhance the future generation of the state, advance accessibility to free healthcare delivery and unleash a new era of road infrastructure in the state.
