Dagogo said “I am deeply honoured to have emerged from among several distinguished and highly qualified aspirants who equally sought the party’s ticket. This victory is not mine alone; it belongs to every member of our great party and every Rivers citizen who believes in the possibility of a better future for our state. In this journey, there is no victor and no vanquished only partners united by a common vision to reposition Rivers State for progress and prosperity.
“This project is bigger than any individual or political interest. It is a collective mission that requires the support, ideas, and participation of all residents and stakeholders across Rivers State.
“We are determined to build upon the legacies of past administrations from the foundational leadership of Commander Alfred Diete-Spiff, to Chief Ada George, Dr. Peter Odili, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, Chief Nyesom Wike, and Governor Siminalayi Fubara. We will learn from their successes, improve upon their shortcomings, and chart a new course that prioritizes sustainable development and people-centred governance.”
“We will not engage in mudslinging, personal attacks, or divisive politics. Instead, we will present clear policies and actionable plans on how to improve security, provide affordable and quality education, empower our youths, create jobs and economic opportunities, strengthen healthcare delivery, and restore the pride and dignity of Rivers State.”
