The Senatorial Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta North, Prince Ned Nwoko had promised to take the blame if PDP members that are voted into office, fail.
According to him, some of the PDP members currently in office cannot perform well because they are under the presidency of an All Progressives Congress (APC) member.
Speaking at his ancestral home, Idumuje Unor during a town hall meeting with the youths, Nwoko pleaded with them to vote for PDP candidates across all levels.
He revealed that if elected, he would be able to work better if the president and Delta state governor are PDP members as it would give him easy access to them.
In his words, “ I appreciate your love and support, I appreciate the way the youths are willingly showing their support for me and assuring me victory.
“But I want you to understand that I cannot do that which you expect from me alone.
“I have a team which I must work with to ensure that all the workable plans I have for the youths, including the N50 million grant bill, come to reality. And this team includes; Atiku Abubakar and Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, for presidency, Sheriff Oborevwori and Monday Onyeme, for governorship, Ndudi Elumelu, for House of Representatives, and Emeka Nwaobi, for House of Assembly.

“There may have been some of these candidates who did not do as expected during their first tenure in office. I also want you to understand that working under APC government may have dwindled their efforts. Whatever, the case may be, I promise to take responsibility for any of them who will not live up to expectations this time.
“It is easier for me to work with PDP members, because, I can access them with ease, unlike members of other parties. So, voting only me is not enough, we must ensure we win PDP 5/5, and I assure you transparent and productive governance in return.
“By God’s grace, I am a comfortable man in life, so, there is nothing anyone can offer me that can make me compromise my principles. We will work for the people,” Nwoko said.
