The leader of the mainstream of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State, Olorogun O’tega Emerhor is elated that the immediate past governor of the state, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan has finally joined the party.

Emerhor, while welcoming Uduaghan reminded Gov Ifeanyi Okowa of the notice to quit which he (Emerhor), last year, issued on him to start packing out of government house Asaba as the days of PDP misrule in Delta State are now clearly numbered. 

 In a statement signed by the 2015 APC governorship candidate on Wednesday, he stated that Uduaghan was not just a paramount leader of the PDP but the soul and body of the party that gave it life in its formidable days. The exit of Uduaghan, therefore, means that Delta PDP is now lifeless and in the throes of a degenerative death.

 Emerhor said, “I am particularly excited about his (Uduaghan) joining our party because the value he brings is unquantifiable! He is a man that has conquered the rough and rugged political terrain of Delta State, again and again, winning and ruling the state twice for a total of eight years. He comes with a political hands-on experience spanning over 16 years.

 “Uduaghan knows Delta and Deltans know him. What is more, he comes as a ‘John the Baptist’ forerunning ahead of a multitude of his time-tested followers and, indeed, political associates! No deadlier or more fatal blow has ever been dealt against PDP in Delta State than Uduaghan’s crossing over to APC from the PDP. 

 “For Delta APC, Gov Uduaghan’s coming couldn’t have been better timed. His experience and stature will help to rally the party in its current drive for unity. The strength he comes with will further validate our hope.   

 “On behalf of the mainstream and larger APC family in Delta State, I heartily welcome Gov. Uduaghan into the Delta APC fold and assure him of our full cooperation and his entitlement to the full privileges and rights due to every members and party leaders.”

 Deltans should fasten their seat belt as the journey from perdition to liberation has now started earnestly! 2019 here we come, Emerhor concluded.
