Following alleged frustration by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and Delta State governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s marginalisation of Delta North in the scheme of things, the lawmaker representing the district in National Assembly, Senator Ned Nwoko, is set to officially dump his party for the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Speaking on Arise TV, Nwoko’s Director of Communications, Gloria Okolugbo, disclosed that the lawmaker had already declared his intention to leave PDP during a meeting with stakeholders of Delta North, his supporters and constituents.
According to Okolugbo, “Senator Nwoko came prepared to serve and deliver the dividends of good governance to Anioma people, but regrettably, he had not enjoyed the cooperation and support of his party, the PDP in pursuit of his vision, even as the only PDP Senator in Delta State.”
She cited instances of frustration by Oborevwori and the PDP to include refusal to assist in funding the Okpai Independent Power Project, IPP, stepdown to supply electricity to no fewer than 60 communities in Delta North and the Ogwashi-Uku Dam to provide water to the community and the environs
