THE race for the Delta State Government House is getting keener by the day. Apart from a horde of aspirants jostling for the position on the banner of the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP), a couple of others are laying claim to the governorship seat on the plank of opposition parties.
.
One of those, who want to succeed Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan in 2015 via opposition platform is activist lawyer, Mr. Festus Keyamo, who declared his intent on March 9, 2013.
.
Currently, Keyamo is mobilizing support for his ambition through the Delta Forces United (DFU). He is yet to publicly declare for any political party, but his body language and comments indicate that he may declare for the yet-to-be-registered All Progressives Congress, APC.
.
Wrestling power from political dynasty: His entry into the race, which he has repeatedly referred to as a struggle to wrestle power from the political dynasty that has "mismanaged" the state since 1999 is already raising dusts in the oil-rich state christened the 'Big Heart.'
