2027: My entrance into APC ‘ll end PDP in Delta Ex-Reps member

A former member of the Federal House of Representatives, Hon. Hon Ossai Nicholas Ossai, has declared that his entrance into the All Progressives Congress (APC) will lead to total collapse of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State.

The former third term lawmaker said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been his mentor since his days in the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Lagos, hence he has joined APC to reunite with the President.

Addressing newsmen after he was officially received into the party by the APC National Secretary, Ajibola Basiru, Wednesday at the national secretariat, the Delta born politician said

He said: “I have been in PDP for sometimes, I have been in National Assembly as a three timer under the platform of PDP but the umbrella has broken down and I remember during the SDP time, the president of the Federal Repbulic of Nigeria, we see him as a role model and today, he is still my role model and when he came into governance I have no other place than to come into APC – to work for him and to strengthen his government.

“I’m here with my teaming supporters. I have gone to my ward, card has been issued to me. I have also attended senatorial meeting of the All Progressives Congress. I have come today to inform you that I’m in the fold now and I need your blessings. I’m one of your foot soldiers in Delta state and I have come to declare personally before you today and to tell you that I will abide by the rules, the laws, the constitution governing APC.

“And I will go back to Delta State to champion Asiwaju renewed hope. The programmes are great programmes. The revolution in the agricultural sector is benefiting Nigerians today.”

Responding, the APC National Secretary, while congratulating the new entrant said: “of all political parties in Nigeria, our party continues to wax stronger and you see opposition parties, particularly the Peoples Democratic Party are in serious crisis occasioned by inordinate ambitions and lack of proper coordination. The question is, can Nigerians trust a party that can not even put its house in order to rule the country. So, thank you for abandoning that already dilapidated structure.”
