Early in a statement Senator Rowland Owie, made known that in 2016 Edo State governorship election candidates will be based on personality of persons and not party shows
Stating further his intention in joining other leaders of PDP, Peoples Democratic Party, in ensuring the coming in of a credible governorship candidate for the party, he stated in a warning that anybody who previously was part of the destruction of the PDP Peoples Democratic Party and the alleged low performance of the Lucky Igbinedion administration in the state (1999-2007) will not be fielded by the PDP.
Also he said “The 2016 governorship election , it is going to be on who the candidate is. A credible candidate that is not connected to any failed government
He repeated “We will field a candidate who does not have any connection with a previously failed PDP government in Edo State. For PDP to be seen to have broken links with irresponsibility, we have to be sure that our candidate for 2016 has no relationship with previous failures of PDP government in Edo State.
Narrated the Chief Lucky Igbinedion story of being blamed, whereas his failures were attributed to those that surrounded him. Take a cue from the last PDP primaries in Edo State, look at how most of the giants failed in the primaries. It is not that those aspirants were bad, but the PDP members who voted during the primaries were mirroring the aspirants against the background of what happened before.
“You can no longer fool anybody in Edo State,” he stated
