By CHARLES ONYEKWERE,

A group, ‘peter Obi support Network’ has raised alarm over the disruption of a free medical outreach by suspected thugs loyal to governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State and Vice Presidential candidate of opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP)in the 2023 general election.

The free medical outreach programme, organised by Diasporan medics for Good Governance in conjunction with Doctors 4 Peter Obi in Ogbonologo market in Asaba, Delta State capital.

The group, in a statement on Friday signed by its Director, Strategic Communications, Mr Onwuasoanya FCC Jones, described Okowa’s action as irresponsible and hooliganism.

The statement read in part” The Peter Obi Support Network regretfully wish to alert Nigerians to the irresponsible resort to hooliganism by Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State as he sent his thugs to disrupt a free medical outreach organised by Diasporan Medics for Good Governance in conjunction with Doctors 4 Peter Obi in Ogbonologo market in Asaba, Delta State.

Onwuasoanya alleged that the thugs were led by the Chairman of Oshimili South Local government area of the State, Mr Kelvin Obi Ezenyili.

According to the statement, no valid reason for stopping hundreds of anxious citizens, who are victims of Okowa’s poor governance from accessing a free medical intervention organised by responsible professionals whose only aim was to meet the medical needs of Deltans.

The group stated that it’s unfortunate that instead of showing gratitude to the selfless medical professionals who tasked themselves to provide useful health interventions to the citizenry, Governor Okowa Choose to exhibit his reckless wickedness by disrupting the exercise.

“We understand that Okowa’s action is a reflection of his Party’s electoral insecurity and a demonstration of their frustration with their clear and loud rejection by all classes of Nigerians who have made no pretensions about their preference for the Labour Party as the vehicle to birth good governance and rescue them from years of mindless dictatorship and reckless rape of their commonwealth, accentuated by an inexplicable dearth of public amenities.

“Governor Okowa must be advised that a resort to sheer hooliganism and deployment of unlawful force cannot stop the people’s resolve to take back their country and enthrone good governance across board.

“In line with the character and philosophy of the incoming President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency Mr Peter Obi and in keeping with the guiding principle of the Obi-Datti Campaign, members of Labour Party in Delta State, volunteers and our supporters from across different political leanings have restrained themselves from responding in kind to Okowa’s thugs as they conducted themselves in the most responsible manner, even in the face of unwarranted provocations by PDP’s thugs.

The group, therefore, enjoin all members, especially, delegates attending the South-east/South-South Summit for Peter Obi, to continue to conduct themselves in an orderly manner and use the provided channels to inform the group promptly of any threat or acts of intimidation from any quarters.
