ASABA/Nigeria: The Delta State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has congratulated the state governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa over Wednesday’s ruling by the Supreme Court declaring him winner of the 2019 governorship election in the state.

The statement which was signed by the APC publicity secretary in the state, Sylvester Imonina, said the party believes that the learned Justices of the Supreme Court are not infallible in the ruling adding that the APC in the state congratulates the governor on the ruling in the spirit of good sportsmanship. The statement reads: “For the sake of the good of Delta State, APC, Delta State congratulates, His Excellency, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa on his victory.
“However, we want to state unequivocally that APC, Delta State as a responsible and responsive Party will continue to point out the ills of the PDP led government of Delta State whenever the need arises.
“The Governor should know that he is a Governor for all Deltans, not a particular section of the State or few persons. The needful should be done at all times in the area of employment and execution of quality and/ or masses’ oriented projects.
“As for all APC faithful in Delta State and Deltans, we urge you not to lose hope in our quest for a better Delta State. This is the time to come together and make sure that all our shortcomings are corrected for our good and the good of all Deltans.”
