“When I take over and I do what they have done, God will disgrace me. This election is not about me, Kenneth Gbagi. It is about the welfare of the people of Delta state. We must rescue Delta State and make it the envy of others.
“Within one year of being in government, we will take Asaba textile mill and restore it back. We will produce all kinds of clothing materials. We will export the clothing materials to other countries.”
He also urged the youths not to “let anybody deceive you with their vain promises. Gbagi has the solution to the challenges in Delta state.”
Speaking further, the SDP governorship candidate said his government will convert part of Isoko lands to a rice-producing area while all schools in Delta State will run free of tuition fees from primary to university level.
He lamented the present situation of public schools in the state. which he described as very pathetic.
Gbagu said:
“We will revamp our school system. Having done that, I won’t allow our government officials’ children to go to school abroad. We will develop our hospitals to the extent that nobody will fly abroad for medical treatment outside this state.”
