Democracy is a game of numbers, a popularity contest to say
the least. One reliable barometer to measure the popularity of a 21st century political
candidate is how well he is received in social media: facebook, twitter, google
groups just to mention a few.
Almost everywhere one turns is a solid social media group
supporting Senator Ifeanyi Okowa. This social media success is infectious as
his popularity goes viral. It’s a presence that wins over the youth and
enlightened hands. No Delta State Gubernatorial candidate compares to him in
this regard.
Going by this towering presence and support from internet
groups, I can confidently posit that Okowa’s campaign is doing very well. If
there be funds for campaigns, social media support groups should equally be funded
to keep the fire burning.
Senator Okowa is the “Change We Can Believe In.”
