“This singular act of courage and foresight represents more than a change of party-it is a strategic alignment with the government at the centre. It is a masterstroke that places Delta State firmly on the path of accelerated development, enhanced federal collaboration, and expanded access to the dividends of democracy.

“As a former Speaker of our great state and a stakeholder in the progress of Delta, I am deeply encouraged by this momentous step. It demonstrates your commitment to rising above partisanship in favour of what truly matters-the prosperity of our people, the unity of our state, and the future of our children.

“This is a victory for every Deltan, both indigene and resident. The synergy that now exists between Delta State and the Federal Government is a gateway to increased infrastructural development, job creation, empowerment of our youth, and a stronger voice for our people in national discourse.

“Your Excellency, you have once again proven to be a man of bold vision and political courage. This tsunami has reshaped the political landscape-not just in Delta but across the South-South. It sends a powerful message that leadership must always be about the people, not party lines.

“As you step into this new chapter with the APC, be assured of my unwavering support and that of many other progressives who believe in building bridges rather than walls. Together, we shall work to consolidate this momentum and build a Delta State that is not only united but strategically positioned to benefit immensely from its new alignment with the Federal Government.

“Your entry into the APC will ensure that our state benefits tremendously from the renewed hope agenda of our leader and President, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, who has continued to sustain the transformation of our economy into a resilient and more productive one for the betterment of all Nigerians”, he added.
