Elder Orubebe boasted that resources to prosecute the elections will be provided.
While sympathizing with the Ijaw APC family over their inability to get any appointments, Elder Orubebe assured them that he will ensure, “what due Ijaw people will be secured.”
The APC Local Government Area Chairman in Burutu, Comrade Moni Seikemienghan Moni thanked Orubebe for joining the party just as he expressed confidence that he(Orubebe) in addition is a big plus to the party.
According to him, “Ijaw Nation now has a high-ranking politician that will stand in the gap.”
KanyiDaily recalls that Godsday Orubebe made headlines after he attempted to disrupt the collation of results of the 2015 presidential election at the International Conference Centre, Abuja.
