Delta NNPP Governorship candidate, Agbi joins PDP
The governorship candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) in the just concluded gubernatorial election in Delta State, Engr. Chief Goodnews Agbi, PhD, has dumped his membership of the party under which he contested the 2023 general election.
Agbi also announced his defection to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with his teeming supporters across the state, sighting sincere conviction to support the administration of Governor Oborevwori.
The former NNPP governorship candidate, was a founding chieftain of PDP before leaving the party several years ago for the opposition.
In a resignation letter addressed to the national chairman of NNPP, the renowned educationist turned politician, said he was joining PDP in the overall interest of bringing true development to all parts of the state.
He further stated that he was joining forces with Governor Sheriff Oborevwori’s PDP to consolidate the enviable achievements of the immediate past governor of the state, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa.
Agbi said that now elections have come and gone, it’s the duty of every patriotic Deltan to support the administration of Oborevwori to deliver on his electioneering campaign promises, noting that the era of using opposition to distract government programs and policies were gone.
The former NNPP governorship candidate also called on Nigerians to unite against the misrule of the All Progressives Congress (APC) led federal government, ordering other opposition figures in the state to join forces with Oborevwori to develop the state.
He predicted that the 2027 general election, particularly in Delta, would be tough and will be keenly contested “as the dramatic personae in APC are already practicing their ‘evil’ dancing skills. There is therefore the need for political stakeholders in the state to join forces with PDP to finally bury APC by ambushing every of their nefarious plots.”
Chief. Agbi, while congratulating Governor Oborevwori on his victory and successful swearing-in, commended former Governor Okowa for the choice of Oborevwori as his successor.
