By Daniel Dafe, Abraka
Some stakeholders of the the All Progressives Congress, APC in Delta State have said that the registration and revalidation exercise must go on in the state, adding that they have “watched with constraint the non-stop onslaught” on the party by self styled leaders.
In a statement on Wednesday signed by AVM Frank Ajobene (former Gov/ Nat), Chief Hycenth Enoha (national caucus), Hon Francis E. Waive (serving HoR), Hon Temmi Harriman (former HoR), Hon Halims Agoda (former HoR), Hon Doris Uboh (former HoR), Hon Paulinus Akpeki (former HoR) and Hon Innocent Anidi (serving HoA member), added that the said leaders have seemingly hijacked stakeholdership of the party and continue to destroy the fortunes of the APC.
They continued: “These so called stakeholders have never won any election in history and have no proof of delivery to the fortunes of our party even in their Units.
“We the undersigned Stakeholders have won elections and have huge followership in our State. We have resolved not to keep quiet while our party is being destroyed.”

Continuing, they insisted that the ongoing APC membership revalidation and registration exercise should be allowed to go on without any further interference.”
Speaking further, they advised “that the membership revalidation and registration exercise go on without excluding anyone and without any stoppage.”
Adding: “That the Committe charged with the responsibility of revalidation and registration be left intact and be allowed to perform their functions without any form of distractions.”
Meanwhile, they condemned in totality and disassociated themselves from what they described as the “false claims/statement credited to the Minister of State Labour & Productivity, Barr Festus Keyamo” and emphasized that “the Deputy President of the Senate His Excellency Distinguished Senator Ovie Omo Agege is the leader of the party in our State.”
“We will be silent no more! Keyamo’s attempt to truncate the ongoing membership Revalidation and Registration will never stand!”
