“We are here to tell you our plans today, we all are considered as youths as they call us but we are not getting younger.
“We are supposed to be better than what we are now, if you come to our communities, there is no presence of government. No good road, good portable drinking water, no light for over many years.
“This time we will change the narrative and that is what we are here to do and by the grace of God, we are going to show our understanding and we assure you that in our capacity, we will deliver Warri South West for you.
“Because we own the grassroot, we know what to do. We are not babies, instead we are a pressure group that work with candidates that are capable of delivering Delta state.
“We don’t want to work under party structure because this same party structure is what is destroying the state. They will give it to their party and the party leadership will give to their families.
“We have decided that it is about the individual who is good enough to deliver the grassroot, we will deliver the candidate because we are working closely with the candidates.
“We are to deliver any candidate that is ready to work with us because as a councillor, I cannot enjoy my salary because people who are close to me that cannot afford the high standard of living.
“So, because of that, we are prepared to deliver a sincere candidate who will equally deliver us.

“So I want to commended you people as you are foresighted to know and realize that.
“By some coincidence our name coincides with with with your group name, we are Liberate Delta and the meaning of Liberate is to free Delta so it is a good thing that you have started and you must align with a party once you have made up your mind.
“So am happy that you people came but officially once you people make up your mind, let me know how I can be of help and participate.
