The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State has declared that it would not miss the former governor of the state, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, who just abandoned the party and returned to the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday.
In a statement released by Publicity Secretary, Mr. Sylvester Imonina in Asaba, while reacting to the defection of the former governor, the party said “The Delta APC will not miss him in any way because APC accommodated him out of compassion as an orphaned politician displaced by the same PDP he has returned to. We wish him well.
