Minister of State for Petroleum
Resources, Dr Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu has said he is preoccupied with ensuring
the unity of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, in the state.
According to him, unity of the
APC was his goal not vying for the governorship of Delta State.
Kachikwu made the remark on
Monday shortly after he met with the National Chairman of the party, Comrade
Adams Oshiomhole.
“I have said that many times, I
don’t know why people think I am going to talk about this thing. I don’t want
to be governor, I am not running for governorship, I want to make sure the
party unifies and selects a candidate we can work with. That’s my position on
that”, he said.
“Actually, I didn’t come to take
over any structure, the reality is, the politics of structure has passed.
“APC has a different approach to
this thing. It doesn’t matter who has the structure, it doesn’t matter what the
structure is.
“Things are going to be done
right, things are going to be done collectively and in a unified manner so that
everybody can work together.
“But, if you take the structure,
people do not support you, then you are going to lose. Our business is to
deliver the President and deliver the governorship.
“We are going to do it in a way
that it will be contentious and all-inclusive. We have come to discuss with
Comrade, we want to congratulate him formally and for us to make him understand
that we have some work to do collectively in Delta and we are putting heads
together. We have been working collectively so far just to find a common
solution”, he added.
