Delta State Governor Ifeanyi Okowa has identified that Nigeria can only get better when the integrity of the electoral process can be guaranteed to reflect the will of the people during elections.
The governor addressed members of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at the residence of the Chairman of the state’s Waste Management Board, Mr Emmanuel Chinye at Onicha-Olona in Aniocha North Local Government Area of the state on Monday.
He said that leaders in various positions would become more responsive when votes began to count.
He commended the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for introducing the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) and maintained that introduction of the device would guarantee integrity of the voting process.
He said: “We are praying for a better Nigeria and we are praying that God will help INEC to succeed. It is not about PDP or APC; it is about the people of Nigeria. The more the people are sure that their votes will count the more those in position of authority will be more responsive.”
