…Accuses APC Leaders Of Greed
Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ughweru, Ughelli, Delta State, led by Hon. Umukoro Innocent, yesterday, during the campaign visit of Olorogun Jaro Egbo to Ughweru, defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of the forthcoming local government elections in July 13.
The defection of the APC members into PDP according to Hon. Umukoro Innocent, was consequent upon what he described as the unending deceit and greed in the leadership structure of the party.
Receiving the decampees into the PDP fold, the Acting Chairman of PDP in the local government, Evangelist Kesiena Nomuoja, thanked them for making the right choice by joining the PDP. He expressed gratitude to them for realising that Delta State is a PDP State and urged them to join others to deliver Olorogun Jaro Augustine Egbo come July 13.
Speaking with Journalists, Hon. Umukoro Innocent, stressed that he regretted the energy, time and resources he invested in the APC over the years, noting that the leadership of the party are greedy and selfish.
“I was a pillar and strong member of the APC in Ughweru, the local government and the state. I invested my hard earned money, time and energy working for the victory of the party, but they failed me woefully.
“I regretted the resources and time I spent in the APC, even as an aspirant during the House of Assembly Elections.
” They don’t recognize hard work and members efforts, so my followers and I, have decided to defect to the PDP and I am very optimistic that the PDP and the candidate for the council elections will testify to my strength during the forthcoming local government elections.
