Delta: PDP condemns invasion of party secretariat by thugs, blames Ibori’s daughter

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Delta State has condemned the invasion of its secretariat in Oghara, Ethiope-West LGA, by suspected thugs said to be loyal to Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu, daughter of ex-governor James Ibori.

Ibori-Suenu recently defected from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

This is contained in a statement signed by Delta State PDP Publicity Secretary, Dr. Ebenezer Okorodudu, and made available to journalists on Sunday.

“The attention of the Delta State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been drawn to the unfortunate and unlawful invasion of its party secretariat in Oghara, Ethiope West Local Government Area of Delta State on Thursday by thugs believed to be acting on the orders of Hon. Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu of the All Progressives Congress (APC), whereby they converted the building and repainted it with APC colours.

“The PDP views this provocative and disgraceful action as part of a series of desperate attempts by Hon. Erhiatake Ibori-Suenu, who recently defected to the APC, to appropriate the structures and assets of the PDP for the benefit of her new party.

“This shows that her defection was poorly planned and driven by personal ambition rather than any genuine political ideology.
