He said consultations with political associates, supporters, and stakeholders convinced him that Deltans desired leadership focused on integrity, listening to the people, and delivering results.
The former deputy senate president also acknowledged key NDC leaders, including Seriake Dickson, NDC National Chairman Cleopas Moses, Peter Obi, and Rabiu Kwankwaso, for engaging him during the process.
“I thank the leadership of the NDC for reaching out and engaging me in this process: Senator Seriake Dickson, Leader and Founder; Senator Moses Cleopas, National Chairman; Governor Peter Obi, Presidential Aspirant; and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Leader of the Kwankwasiyya Movement and NDC Chieftain. Their commitment to building a credible, people-first alternative gives me confidence that the NDC is the right platform for Delta State and Nigeria.
