Defectors registered with slips, not yet our members-APC leaders

L-R: Prince Metsese Diden, Prince Valentine Egbe & Comrade Tunde Okorodudu

Leaders of the All Progressives Congress, APC in Warri South Local Government Area, Delta State, say recent defectors to the party from rival political parties who were registered with slips (temporary cards of APC) are on probation and as such not yet confirmed members of the APC.

Chairman of All Progressives Congress for Warri South Local Government Area, Prince Valentine Egbe, the APC House of Assembly Candidate for Warri South Constituency I in the April 11, 2015 House of Assembly/Gubernatorial Polls, Barr. Robinson Ereomala Ariyo,
one-time Delta South Senatorial Candidate of the defunct AD and founding leader of APC in Delta South, Comrade Tunde Okorodudu as well as Ward Leaders of the party in Warri South Local Government Area made the declaration in Warri, Friday January 8, 2016, during a press briefing.

The Warri South APC Chairman, Prince Valentine Egbe in a statement explained that the press conference “was occasioned by the need to put to rest any doubt the support enjoined by the State Executive Council of our great party led by Prophet Jones Erue”, and reiterated their confidence “in the leadership of Olorogun O’tega Emerhor, Prophet Jones Erue and the entire Delta State Executive Council of the party”.

He warned against “any form of over ambitiousness and importation of the distasteful behavior and disposition which some of these persons might have imbibed in the party from which they have defected”.

The Warri South APC Chairman tasked new entrants into the party fold “to return to their respective units and wards for proper recognition and orientation to avoid negative consequences”.

Comrade Tunde Okorodudu on his part commended the Delta State APC gubernatorial candidate in the April 11, 2015 election, Olorogun O’tega Emerhor for investing heavily towards the formation of a solid structure for the APC in the State and applauded Ward Chairmen of the party for their sacrifice right from when the party was formed.

Barr. Ariyo while fielding questions from newsmen, noted that there is no crack in Delta State APC, adding that “attempt to crack the party through procurement of judgment in a bid to discredit the Erue led State Executive suffered miscarriage”.
