The Delta North chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has vehemently condemned what it described as “audacious and ill-fated attempt by Chief Paulinus Akpeki and his cohorts to usurp the leadership of the party”.

The Delta North APC made the assertion in a statement released by leader of the party in the Senatorial District, Senator Peter Nwoboshi, on Monday.

According to the statement, the brazen move by Akpeki and cohort is a clear and present danger to the stability and unity of our great party.
 
“We unequivocally and unanimously endorse the emergence of Barr Francis Obigbor as the Acting Chairman of APC Delta State, in strict accordance with the APC constitution.

“As the Deputy State Chairman, Barr Obigbor is the rightful and legitimate person to assume the role of Acting Chairman.
 
“We will not stand idly by while the Delta Central Senatorial District attempts to rob the Delta North Senatorial District of the position to which it was duly elected at the last congress.

“The APC constitution is crystal clear on the matter of succession, and we will not allow any individual or group to flout the constitution and impose their will on the party.
 
“We warn those involved in this attempted coup to desist from their nefarious activities and respect the constitution”, the statementreads.
