Speaking further, he said that Okowa had been on ground as instructed by God, leading the people as instructed by empowering women, boys and girls.

“Okowa is on ground, empowering the people of Delta, women, boys and girls. Infact this governor bulldozer, as he is bulldozing every rubbish out of Delta state, therefore the state needs him back.”

On how to avert the statement coming to pass, Bishop Okoh said Christians in the state will intensify their prayers for the state, and for the governor to continue with his developmental agenda.
