As the Oshimili South LGA Chapter of the People's Democratic Party commenced her grassroot ward to ward campaigns, the exercise had registered tons of Kudos, applauds & knocks as shades of opinions differs.
The campaign witnessed quite a good turn out of women, elders and youth groups in active participation.
An opportunity, the party's candidates for the Senate, House of Representative and State House of Assembly seized to go grassroot with their campaigns.
The well planned and packaged event thrilled party faithfuls with pro-party speeches, members' response and side insinuation from Deltans, though the exercise for want of time never gave grassroot people the chance to share deep seated vibrations.
Asaba Post News Wire intelligently sampled grassroot opinions at the event centers, though unanimously.
The Council area party chairman, Evang. Ebielim Maduemezia in his speech strongly emphasized the party's victory at all levels of the forth coming general election.
Though silent about threats from the Nation's chief opposition political party, the APC, the party chieftain was gravely particular about the candidature of Rt Hon Victor Ochei.
According to Evang Maduemezia, Rt Hon Ochei had pledged to the party to support who ever emerged as the party's guber flag bearer.
Ochie's sudden political switch and turn around to contest the senate with Barr Peter Nwaoboshi is scripturally an error, Ochie has rebelled against the party that has given him so much, Isaiah chapter 120 holds his judgement for him, Engv Maduemezia pointed out.
Rt Hon Peter Onwusanya in his address pleaded with the people to go collect their Permanent Voters Card(PVC) and massively vote for the PDP.
A vote for PDP is a vote for an enhanced implementation of grassroot driven women and youth development initiatives.
The party has done well in the past in this council area, your vote for the PDP will add value, increase opportunities and attract more pro-poor amenities and infrastructures, Rt Hon Onwusanya stressed.
Hon Onyemaechi Mrakpor, PDP's candidate for the House of Representatives, in her views praised the sterling qualities of Rt Hon Peter Onwusanya, whose love for his people, she remarked his special.
For your love and commitment to humanity, I am sure soon you will preach for God like I do today, Hon Mrakpor told Rt Hon Onwusanya.
As her in road into the hearts of Asaba voters, Hon Mrakpor laid claims to Asaba daughtership.
Why can't I be an Asaba daughter, a land that has blessed me with a son, daughter and recently wonderful set of triplets, a great legislative career and great family, what else remains to be called a worthy daughter of the land, Hon Mrakpor argues.
At the ward seven rally ground, a response from a traditional red cap chief, Obi Odiaka, almost shattered the arranged plan of engagement.
In an outburst of past political injustice the red cap chief endured from past PDP chairman, who he claimed he helped in his campaigns but today is rubbished remains a political cancer widening everyday.
In his words, he lamented thus, you PDP are fraudsters, you do not have respect for elders.
Imagine, how can after all I did for you at campaigns, even as a traditional red cap chieftain, today, look at how I was rubbished by your chairman, it is so horrible, Obi Odiaka lamented.
In a swift response and some kind of a quick fix approach to Obi Odiaka's unexpected public outburst of political grievance, Envg Maduemezia's frantic attempts at grappling with some quick counter perspectives, failed to change the already charged crowd's impression about Obi Odiaka's lamentation.
One remarkable feature of the grassroot campaign was the people's loud acclaim in support of their most preferred candidates at the mention of their names.
From the people's verdict of loud cheers support, it was clear that Rt Hon Onwusanya stole the show most.
For her smart political thought manovering, Hon Mrakpor got second best support of the people's voice votes after Rt Hon Peter Onwusanya.
Of Barr Peter Nwaoboshi, it was clear he lost the cheer leaders support, despite all his attempts to convince the people about his engagement with his self styled equity initiative.
Feelers from a good number of rally participants, Asaba Post News Wire intelligently spoke to, shared that Rt Hon Ochei stands better chance at the polls than Barr Peter Nwaoboshi.
Those who spoke unofficially to Asaba Post News Wire were of the opinion that the reason for which the event registered the huge turn out was because they were previously informed that they were coming to meet Rt Hon Peter Onwusanya.
We can't get this number if it were Barr Nwaoboshi who called for this rally, one participant told us.
