“We are not part of that and we cannot support that. We therefore pass a vote of confidence on our senator Chief Ede Dafinone. He has done well, we should be patient, he will do more because he’s going to surprise us. Empowerment will certainly get to everyone.”

“He has sponsored a bill for the establishment of a university of education at Isiokolo and the process is still on at the national assembly. He has light up almost everywhere in Delta central. He has also set up 50 blocks hostel at the Federal University of Petroleum Institute. We members of ward 1 are happy with our senator.

“Our senator is working with RT Hon Monday Igbuya to light up Sapele and this is very commendable. Dafinone is our senator and we can never deny him. He has been paying hospital bills to people. He’s the only Senator who has given us feedback after he was elected. He has also appointed a lot of persons who are currently receiving salary across the 8 local government,” he said.

Also speaking, Mr Philip Akporoba, the vice chairman of Ward 1, noted that leaders and members of the ward have confidence in Dafinone, as Mr Aghoghowia S.O, former chairman of Ward 1 explained that Senator Ede Dafinone is a true son of his father who knows the pain and the needs of the people.
