DELTA 2015: SIR FIDELIS TILIJE AND HIS TEEMING SUPPORTERS DECLARE SUPPORT FOR SENATOR OKOWA

Sir Fidelis Okenmor Tilije, the former All Progressive Congress, APC Governorship aspirant and former running mate to Chief Great Ogboru, DPP Governorship candidate in the 2011 governorship election has dumped APC for PDP along with thousands of his supporters. His formal declaration for PDP took place yesterday at Obiaruku, headquarters of Ukwuani local government area.

Sir Tilije said his decision to dump the All Progressives Congress, APC, for the People’s Democratic Party, PDP in the State was facilitated by the emergence of Senator Okowa as the PDP flag bearer.

He said the decision was enabled by the leadership acumen and competence of Senator Ifeanyi Okowa to continue to move Delta State forward.

According to him, he chose to leave the APC when he realized that he was not being appreciated and recognized by the cabal in the party, despite his huge contributions to its growth. The former APC chieftain clarified that his decision to leave his former party was basically a product of personal volition.
