The number one reason why PDP lost the Presidential elections was the EXIT of the five Governors. But let us narrow our discussion to Delta State.
Governor OKOWA, unlike Atiku, could not deliver his state to PDP for the Presidential elections due to the following reasons:
1. Lack of Internal Democracy
During the Governorship primaries held at Asaba, some PDP Faithfuls like Chief Hon. Kenneth Gbagi and others were disallowed from entering the stadium let alone participating in the primaries. Consequently, this sent bad signals to Gbagi's camp so him and his followers decamped to another party.
Additionally, an aspirant from Ibori's camp, that was long projected for the seat, Chief Hon. David Edevbie was also downplayed, though he was allowed to participate in the primaries but all delegates in the state including his ward were moved to Asaba two days before the primary election where they were camped, bribed and ordered by the Governor to deliver his candidate Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori
2.
Disloyalty
Because of the inability of Chief David Edevbie to secure the party's gubernatorial ticket as projected by Chief Ibori, the Governor was therefore perceived by Ibori's camp as being disloyal and this made some PDP members to work against the party.
3. Dishonesty
Many Deltans view Governor Okowa as a traitor after working against an agreement which all Southern Governors signed that no Southern leader should accept vice presidential slot since it's the turn of the south to produce the President.
Okowa is also viewed as a 'borow borrow Governor.
4. Peter Obi's Tsunami
Because Delta State is located in the South South, area that falls within the circumference of OBI'S movement. So Labour Party that swept across South East and South South could not have exempted Delta.

APC are number 1 in it stop pretending.
Even Thifnubu's newspaper published an Obituary article to mock obi.

In Uyo, Thifnubu called a sitting governor "small boy"

You and your groups were shouting Peter Obi, igbos won't smell ASO ROCK etc.

Just dey play.

If you have any family members who are polling agents, you better pray for them come this Saturday.
Any polling agent that refused for whatever reason to upload results real time is risking their lives unnecessarily.
