Justice Iyasere, a refined journalist and winner of the Vice Chancellor’s prize for best graduating student of the Delta State University in his University days, disclosed that the PDP has, over the years, neglected him and his professional expertise in many activities in the state, stressing that his non-inclusion in the media team of the Campaign council was a slap on him.
‘’My worry is that if I can be neglected at this stage, when the time comes for appointments, there will be nobody to remember me and get me into government.
“I sincerely appreciate my brother and friend, Hon Samuel Mariere for the support over the years but on this matter, where little boys who are not qualified to be my aides are being promoted as Media Team members and I am not considered, I must express my grievous disappointments.
‘’I am not a small boy in the media. Considering my age and over 20 years experience as a Journalist, I thought somebody could remember my name among the media team members. I am not leaving PDP for any reason, I remain PDP, but let me just state my position that I will not be part of any campaign at any level for the 2023 general election. I will not be a campaign team member for any of the elections. Let me remain in the background to which I have been relegated.
‘’If over 20 names could make the list from my Udu LGA and I am not counted worthy to serve now, is it during appointments that I would be remembered when the government is formed? If no Udu leader could include me in this list, I must say I am disappointed.
“I have many people I refer to as my leaders but none could take my name to the appropriate quarters for consideration. It is clear my services are not needed. I shall play a supporting role from the background as the party desires. Thank you’’, the statement added.
