By Austin Oyibode

A prominent chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta North, Chief Emma Ejiofor, has thrown his full support behind Senator Ned Nwoko’s bid to return to the Senate in 2027, describing him as an unmatched political figure and declaring that no serious opposition exists to challenge his seat.

In an exclusive interview, Chief Ejiofor dismissed any concerns about potential challengers to Nwoko’s position, saying: “Nobody is contesting Senator Nwoko’s position with him. Those shenanigans that are talking — we will tell them we are miles ahead of them.”

Ejiofor praised Nwoko’s performance in the National Assembly, saying he has brought pride and visibility to the Anioma people. “If you go to the National Assembly, you will be proud that you are from Anioma nation. You have a colossus as a senator. Everybody respects him. This is what is needed in governance.”

According to the APC chieftain, Nwoko’s influence transcends party lines and has reshaped the political landscape in Delta North. “We know the sudden movement from PDP to APC is a result of Ned. If Ned had not moved, they wouldn’t have moved,” he said.

Describing the senator as a strategic thinker, Ejiofor remarked, “Ned is AI himself — he can proffer solution to your political problems the way you want it. He will not have any stiff competition in returning to the Senate.”

Ejiofor emphasised that Nwoko’s developmental efforts set him apart from his predecessors, especially in terms of impactful constituency projects.

Giving reasons why Nwoko must return to the senate, he said: “Don’t you want them to tar the Oko-Patani road? What about the dam at Idumuje-Ugboko? What about the Okpai power plant and the Ogwashi Uku dam? He must finish them and every other good thing he has in mind.

“His constituency project is how to bring these good things to his people in Delta North,” he said, criticising what he called “insulting” handouts like sewing machines, grinding machines and tricycles.

Ejiofor made it clear that the APC in Delta North is fully behind Nwoko’s return in 2027, insisting: “Now that we have gotten a voice in Delta North — mark that word — we have a voice in government. We must send him back to the Senate to finish all he has started.”

Nwoko, currently representing Delta North, is widely seen as a key political figure in the region, and his recent defection from the PDP to the APC has stirred significant attention across Delta State.
