Tinubu’s Performance Cause Of Defections To APC – Gov Otu

Cross River State Governor Bassey Out has said the gale of defection to ruling  All Progressives Congress (APC) is propelled by the sterling performance of President Bola Tinubu, rather than political calculations.

Otu made the assertion at the  formal reception of Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, into the APC. The event was attended by Vice President, Kashim Shettima, the APC national chairman, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, and other APC state governors.

Otu described the entrance of the Delta State governor into the APC as not just a political move but a thoughtful and courageous response to the growing aspirations for a better Delta State, a more prosperous Niger Delta, and a stronger Nigeria.

Otu said Cross River, which for years stood as the lone APC-governed state in the South-South, now proudly shares the progressive banner with Delta and Edo States, marking a new dawn of strengthened political realignment in the region.

He said, “An increasing number of South-South states under APC governance is a dream realised.”

He further described President Tinubu’s leadership style as transformational leadership which has inspired trust, value reorientation, infrastructural rebirth, and economic rejuvenation across the nation.

Describing the mass defection led by Oborevwori, his immediate predecessor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, and key PDP structures in Delta, as a historic moment, Otu noted that it sets the stage for deeper regional collaboration, accelerated economic development, and greater political stability.

Otu’s statement advised the Delta State governor, and their supporters who have now joined the party to bring their wealth of experience and strength of grassroot mobilisation to bear in advancing the collective quest for a flourishing South-South and a renewed Nigeria.
