Senator Ned Nwoko prepares to abandon the Peoples Democratic Party for the All Progressives Congress following alleged neglect by Delta State officials. Gloria Okolugbo, his communications director, revealed the senator's intentions during an Arise TV interview. She explained that Governor Sheriff Oborevwori blocked funding for essential infrastructure projects serving Delta North communities. The party refused support for the Okpai Independent Power Project and Ogwashi-Uku Dam despite campaign promises to voters.
Delta State faces losing all three senators to the ruling party after this defection. Okolugbo blamed internal party conflicts and poor democratic practices for driving away elected representatives. The senator consulted with constituents before making this decision public. This move could damage PDP's political standing across the state significantly.
