Delta North APC Meeting Hosted By Senator Nwoko Followed Due Process, Eboh Replies Okubor

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Delta state, Engineer Emmanuel Afam Eboh has dismissed as misrepresentation of facts, comments credited to Dr.Festus Okubor, chief strategist to the state governor, where he expressed concerns over the recent Delta North senatorial meeting held at the country home of senator Ned Nwoko representing Delta North at the National Assembly.

Engineer Eboh in a statement said contrary to Okubor’s claims in a press interview, the senatorial meeting followed due process in line with APC constitutional provisions.

The APC stalwart faulted Okubor’s insinuations as “alarmist and ill informed.”

He expressed dismay that Okubor even as a new comer in APC, failed to read the constitution of the party and resorted to making sensitive public statements,capable of causing disaffection.

“Senatorial meetings had been on,before Dr. Festus Okubor joined APC few months ago. Party meetings are called on the mandate of the senatorial chairman. He can delegate any leader within the senatorial district to serve as host.That was the authority exercised by the leadership of Delta North APC, under Chief Adizue Eluaka when it requested Senator Ned Nwoko to host the Saturday June 14 , 2025 meeting at Idumuje -.Ugboko.

“Routine meeting is the responsibility of the senatorial chairman, not deputy governor. In this case, Eluaka acted within his powers and Senator Nwoko acted well and deserves commendation for being a rallying force in strengthening APC.

“We are fulfilled that the meeting was a huge success attended by thousands of APC leaders and other stakeholders.The high point was quite symbolic, especially with the endorsement of President Bola Tinubu, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori and Senator Ned Nwoko for a second term ahead of 2027.

“APC is a party of decorum and order.There is no room for reckless and inflammatory utterances in the affairs of the party. We must all be guided and maintain discipline,” Eboh advised.
