Ned Nwoko leaving PDP will not affect party’s fortunes – Ward Chairman
The Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Ward 8 in Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State, Comrade Clement Chiazor, has dismissed Senator Ned Nwoko’s defection from PDP to APC as laughable and inconsequential.
In a statement released on Sunday, Chiazor described Nwoko as a serial defector and detailed his history of switching parties, noting that his current departure from the PDP would not affect the party, consistent with past instances.
Chiazor called on party members in the Ward to remain united, emphasizing that Nwoko’s defection should not be a distraction, as the party has consistently been unaffected by Nwoko’s repeated defections.
The statement read: “Yesterday, I received a resignation letter from Senator Ned Nwoko leaving the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
“PDP Ward 8 is an indivisible, formidable, and united big family. Let’s not be distracted. Senator Ned left PDP to APGA in 2003 to contest for governorship position, and PDP didn’t die. Rather, it remains more stronger and united until he later found his way back to PDP again.
“In 2011, Senator Ned Nwoko left PDP again to DPP to contest for Senate position and PDP didn’t collapse but rather remained more flourishing until he Ned Nwoko found his way back to PDP for the second time.
“In 2023, PDP came to our rescue and gave Senator Ned Nwoko mandate to represent the good people of Delta North Senatorial District in the Red Chamber. Just barely one year and a few months as a Senator, he has left the party again to APC. (Laughable)
“Therefore, we urge our teeming supporters to remain focused, be formidable, loyal, faithful, and committed to the party, PDP.
Let us not be distracted.
“It pays to be loyal, for every worker has a payday.
“We will continue to chat the way forward of our great party in bringing the much needed infrastructural and human capital development in line with the M.O.R.E AGENDA of our Governor of Delta State, Rt. Hon. (Dr.) Sheriff Oborevwori.
“PDP remains the only viable party in Delta North and Delta State in general. God bless our leaders, stakeholders, and our teeming supporters.”
