A 2023 House of Assembly candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in Oshimili south local government area of Delta State, Mr Clement Odukwe, has returned to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Odukwe , from ward 2, who decamped ahead of the general election from PDP to LP was received by the PDP LGA party chairman, Ogbueshi Dada Okonji, at the monthly meeting of PDP held on Sunday. Okonji attributed the inability of some PDP members to remain and work for the party to impatience, which he noted had robbed such members of great opportunities in the system. ' PDP is the only visible political party in Oshimili south.
'Party faithfuls, especially the ward leaders should intensify efforts at wooing aggrieved members and those who stepped aside for flimsy excuses. 'PDP umbrella is large enough to accommodate as many that are willing to belong,' he assured. Okonji thanked the former LP candidate for his decision to return to where he originally belonged and assured him and other returnees that the internal democracy in the party would ensure their well-being.
