Chief (Comrade) Sheriff Mulade, winner of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) primary election for Warri Federal Constituency, has thanked party delegates, supporters, and constituents for their overwhelming support in the closely contested poll held Friday in Delta State.
In a personally signed statement released to journalists, the environmental rights activist and peace advocate said the outcome reflects the confidence, trust, and acceptance the people of Warri Federal Constituency have in him.
Mulade said he is humbled by the mandate and promised to prioritize the interests of constituents through effective, people-oriented, and responsive representation if elected in the general election.
According to him, the victory belongs not just to him, but to every resident of the constituency who believes in good governance, unity, and sustainable development.
“I deeply appreciate all those who participated in the electoral process, especially the delegates, supporters, and well-wishers who stood firmly behind my aspiration. Your support, trust, and confidence mean a great deal to me,” he stated.
He called for unity, peaceful coexistence, and collective progress among the three major ethnic groups in the constituency — Ijaw, Itsekiri, and Urhobo — noting that the future of Warri Federal Constituency depends on collaboration and mutual inclusiveness.
Mulade added that the primary result shows the people want inclusive leadership, grassroots-driven representation, and a renewed focus on addressing the constituency’s developmental needs.
“I dedicate this victory to God Almighty and all the people of Warri Federal Constituency whom I seek to serve. This mandate is a call to greater responsibility, and I assure you that I will not let you down. Together, we shall build a constituency where every community has a voice and every citizen has a stake in our collective progress,” he said.
The NDC candidate urged party members and supporters to remain united and focused as the party moves into the next phase of the electoral process. He stressed that victory can only be sustained through solidarity, commitment, and a shared vision for the development of Warri Federal Constituency.
