Stay Away From APC, You Are Not My Match, Ned Nwoko Warns Delta Gov Oborevwori

The Senator representing Delta North in the Senate, Ned Nwoko, has warned Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State not to contemplate joining him in his new party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Nwoko said this shortly after he was officially received into the APC by the Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje-led National Working Committee (NWC) at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja on Wednesday.

The lawmaker declared that he would not welcome the governor if he eventually chose to join the APC as being rumoured, saying Oborevwori was not his match anywhere.

“My first concern in leaving PDP is to make sure that there’s enough time for me to get some things done through federal government. I’m tired of being in Delta and almost like in opposition, because I tell them what to do, they don’t want to do it, I keep telling them.

“Sheriff, is not a match for me anywhere. And so he became a governor by default. And suddenly, he doesn’t respect me anymore.

“No, I will not welcome him. How? Why? I have just told you that he doesn’t have the capacity to be a governor where we are. He has not delivered to my expectations.

“We have projects that I told him that are needed to be done for the people which he refused to do,” he said.

Nwoko said he would unite APC and bring peace to the party in Delta State as well as deliver the South-South State to the ruling party in the next general election.

Speaking while receiving the Delta North Senator, the APC national chairman Ganduje asked Nwoko to work with other stakeholders in the interest of the party.

“What we are looking forward to is a highly organised party structure in that state, composed of men and women, especially young men who will go from house to house to show that APC dominates almost everywhere.

“You are most welcomed, Distinguished Senator to our great party. There’s no doubt our great party is the most nationalistic party, the party that has spread from all over the country.

“Our party believes in national integration. Our party believes in national unity. Our party believes in progress and providing prosperity to the people of Nigeria,” Ganduje stated.
