The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP is set to pick former militant leader
Government Ekpemupolo, also known as Tompolo, as the running mate of
Ifeanyi Okowa, the party’s governorship candidate in Delta state.
According to THE CABLE, a high ranking member of the PDP who spoke
anonymously said, even Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan, of Delta state cannot
challenge the political might of Tompolo.
"Everyone is afraid of him. He is fully in control and dictates what
happens here in Delta. He is fond of intimidating those who are not in
his good books. Recently, the names of some people who won the primary
election for the state and national assembly were replaced on his
orders.
"He uses his influence in Abuja to fight those who are not in his camp.
There is so much confusion in Delta right now. Some people who won the
party’s ticket would not return. I can confirm to you that the current
deputy speaker of the Delta state house of assembly, in the person of
Basil Ganagana would not return to the house even though he won the
primaries", the source said.
