The presidential posters of Engineer Isaac Babatunde Ositelu, a 2019 presidential candidate of Accord Party has flooded the streets of Bayelsa state and many other Niger Delta Region States.

The visibility of the posters are giving strong indications that Ositelu might be considering to contest the 2023 presidential election.

Nation Update gathered on Monday in Bayelsa State that, posters and billboards of the politician were visibly seen at major and strategic points in the state.

There were such inscription as “Nigeria Will Rise Again”, “Ositelu Isaac Babatunde for president in 2023 elections,” and so on as was sighted by Nation Update

In the last few weeks, his posters were seen at all strategic points of major streets in Rivers, Delta and Bayelsa states.

Though the politician is yet to declare his intention to contest the number one position in the land, sources available to us have confirmed that plans are already afoot for him to make his intention to contest presidential position known.

Ther are also strong indications that this time, he may not contest under his former party, Accord Party

Ositelu, had promised to rebuild Nigeria’s broken infrastructure, if elected. Ositelu, an engineer with diverse local and international industry experience, also vowed to unite Nigerians regardless of tongue and creed in his 2019 campaigns.

He had described as selective, undemocratic, bias, subjective and unabashedly discriminative the decision of the National Election Debate Group (NEDG) to handpick only five out of the 98 presidential candidates in the 2019 presidential election for the presidential debate.
