DFU ENDORSES KEYAMO FOR SENATE Erudite lawyer and prominent Deltan of Urhobo extraction, Barrister Festus Keyamo has been endorsed by members of his political family, Delta Forces United, DFU, to contest the forthcoming bye-election in Delta Central Senatorial district. Coordinators of DFU in Delta Central senatorial district who reportedly held wide and extensive consultations in the area agreed that Keyamo possess a profile that perfectly qualifies him to fill the vacuum created by the shocking death of Senator Pius Ewherido. DFU, a socio- political group in Delta State which recently merged with the APC, in a statement by its spokesman, Frank Oshanugor opined that as a result of the flourishing career of the effervescent legal practitioner, Barr. Festus Keyamo, he deserves to occupy the vacant senatorial seat so as to project the cause of the Urhobo Nation at the National Assembly. They cited the recent legal victory of Festus Keyamo against the Federal government, curtailing the powers of the President to appoint Service Chiefs without the approval of the National Assembly as one of several reasons why the popular legal practioner should vie for the coveted seat. The group argued that if Keyamo could fight such onerous battle on behalf of the Senate in his private capacity as a non-Senator and won, it could only be imagined how much value his election as a Senator could bring into the hallowed chambers of the upper legislative body and to the Urhobo Nation in general.
