The Chairman of Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State, Dr Michael Tidi, has officially declared his intention to run for the Warri South Constituency 11 at the State House of Assembly.
Tidi made his intention known on Sunday at the Warri South Secretariat of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Secretariat.
Addressing the delegates and party supporters, Tidi said that he wanted to put his leadership experience to bear for the good of Warri South 11 constituents.
The council chairman expressed concern over the poor representation of the Warri South Constituency 11 at the state House of Assembly.
“I want to be the next member to represent Warri South Constituency 11 at the Delta House of Assembly by the special grace of God and your support.
“Esteemed delegates, as you already know, I am Tidi, an Itsekiri of Okere, Ode-Itsekiri, Omadino, and Urhobo of Ukpokiti and lgbudu all of Warri South Local Government Area of Delta.
“The honest truth is that Warri South Constituency 11 deserves a more robust, Knowledgeable, educated and exposed representative.
“Being a representative at the State Assembly involves articulate presentation, arguments and defense of ideas captured in motions that we have not enjoyed so far.
“Warri South Constituency 11 needs somebody who can create the enabling environment for developments,” he said.
Tidi said that it involved education and exposure to be opened to new ideas and also understood them.
“Not too long ago, I assembled people during the 1st and 2nd Warri Economic Summits where we came up with a master plan to provide a roadmap and guide towards the development of our local government.
“I have more valuable experience; exposure, education and wider outreach to attract developments, that is why I am offering myself,” he said
“I promise to keep running a positive campaign to keep my programmes transparent and focus all my energy on the wellbeing of the Warri South II constituents.
“Please, I humbly solicit your nomination. God bless you as you nominate me on May 7, 2022,” he plead.
Responding, the PDP chairman, Warri South Constituency 11, Mr Johnson Agbeyegbe, said that Tidi was not a bad product, noting that he had done a lot as council chairman.
“We have a strong faith in you, we do not doubt your ability. You have proven to us that you can represent us. Talking of digital and scientific approaches, you are there.
“The delegates have heard you and I am sure they will respond positively,” he said.
