A former three-term member of the House of Representatives and Senatorial aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hon Daniel Reyenieju, has been dressed and decorated with All Progressives Congress (APC) robes, signifying he has fully pitched tent with the main opposition party in Delta State.
It would be recalled that Hon. Reyenieju, a dedicated member of the ruling PDP in Delta State, recently dumped the party that gave him the platform to the House of Representatives for the APC, over what he described as a deviation from core values that his former party was known for.
The decoration exercise was carried out by the Delta South Senatorial District candidate of the APC, Hon. Joel-Onowakpo Thomas, currently working tirelessly to ensure a smooth sail for his political party in the forthcoming general elections.
Hon. Reyenieju, an Itsekiri and Niger Delta-born leader, speaking at the ceremony witnessed by a mammoth crowd of APC faithful, vowed to mobilise massively for his new party and ensure that the APC wins overwhelmingly in all elections.
He said the PDP was no longer a home for its members and has deviated from its core objectives, hence, the urgent need to join APC to rescue Delta State from collapsing.
Others decorated by the incoming Senator are two-time Delta State House of Assembly Service Commission Chairman and former House of Assembly Member, Hon (Dr.) Tonye Timi as well as former Executive Assistant (Technical Education) to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State and Chairman of the Technical Education Board, Comrade Michael Akpobire.
Hon. Joel-Onowakpo while decorating the political actors, described them as people who have very vast experience in politics, adding that he was convinced beyond reasonable doubt that their entry into the party has added so much boost to the ever-rising popularity of the APC which will eventually turn to electoral victory for all APC candidates.
The visibly joyous APC Delta South Senatorial District candidate while appreciating his supporters for the job so far done, appealed to all APC members not to relent in their determination to secure victory fall candidates of the party.
