2027: Delta APC growing in strength- PGF Chairman, Uzodimma

The Chairman of the Progressive Governors’ Forum and governor of Imo State, Sen. Hope Uzodimma has said the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State is growing from strength to strength following the recent defection by some Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders to the party.

He made this known while briefing journalists in Abuja on Saturday after a meeting with political stakeholders from Delta.

Uzodimma said: “You can see the tide is moving and people are joining and there will be no end to it. You must have heard that our party in Delta is growing from strength to strength.

“The high point of the state of the party is that Delta is now almost a one-party state.”

Uzodimma, who chairs the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), said that with the development in Delta, the APC would use its internal mechanism to integrate old and new members.

“We will then come together as a family to grow the party and support the government in Delta for the benefit of our people and members of our great party. So, I think we are happy with the development and a big testimony to the fact that the APC government in Nigeria is being admired by many, if not all and sundry.”

It would be recalled that Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta recently defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC, alongside his predecessor, Ifeanyi Okowa and all Commissioners, Council Chairmen and PDP stakeholders.
