Andoni LG: APC Zones Assembly Seat To Asarama…Picks Dr. Dressman As Consensus Candidate

Indications have emerge that the All Progressives Congress, APC, Andoni Local Government chapter have zoned its state House of Assembly slot to Asarama Community, headquarters of ward 9.

The decision, The Newswriter, learnt was taken in view of the fact that Ataba community has produced a two tenure Assembly slot.   The decision was taken in a meeting of the LGA Caucus/Stakeholders committee held recently in Port Harcourt and Dr. Romsan Dressman Otogwun was unanimously voted for as its consensus flag bearer among the five nominated persons.

An insider source in the meeting revealed that the five members and indigenes of Asarama nominated include Ngere Gwunibotge, Chief Luke Edam, Mr. Joshua Okpom, Dr. Luke Eneriene and Dr. Romsan Dressman.

On the need to select one out of the five nominations, it was gathered that Dr. Luke Eneriene and Joshua Okpom were dropped on age bracket as Chief Luke Edam was also dropped.

The in-house election was however between Mr. Ngere Gwunibotge with only One (1) vote and Dr. Romsan Dressman who had an overwhelming 16 votes and was declared the party candidate.

While, The Newswriter political desk had it on good ground of the zoning of APC House of Assembly slot to Asarama, it was also gathered that 3 other aspirants from Ataba community, Chief Clifford Njah, Hon. Betinah and Hon. Charity Gogo Willington have also indicated interest to vie for the same position zoned to Asarama when they purchased there party nomination forms.

Those present in that caucus meeting as authoritatively gathered were Rivers State Deputy Governor, Engr. Tele Ikuru, Chief Davies Ibiamu Ikanya- the APC state Chairman, Hon. Orom Nte, Hon.Sam Sam Etetegwung, Hon. Robert Elleh, Hon. Kinston Sylvanus- APC L.G.A Secretary. Hon. Emmanuel Ikwut-Caretaker Chairman, Hon. Christian Mba, Dr. Akikibofori Sunday, Hon. Ere Victor- APC L.G.A Chairman, Hon. Sampson Gilbert Egop, Chief Emmanuel Ibodeng, Hon. Gogo Levi Charles- State budget commissioner, Mr. Christopher Christopher and Hon. Emmanuel Eneyo among others.

But it was also gathered that the State Chairman, Davies Ikanya stormed out of the meeting when decisions were taken against his conceived expectations by the majority.

The Newswriter, however was also informed that the nomination form for the candidature of Dr. Dressman was duly completed and endorsed by all the eleven (11) wards Chairmen of the APC in the area.

If this information at The Newswriter disposal represents the decision of the caucus committee of the APC in Andoni Local Government Area, then Dr. Romsan Dressman Otogwun eventually emerges APC flag bearer and would slug it out with any candidate of the PDP in the general election come February 2015. ####
