APC DELTA STATE AND THE DELUSION OF OPPOSITION PARTY



The consistent clatter of one deluded voice of Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe is the illusory platform on which APC has become the “feared opposition” party in Delta State. The symbol of the party in the Delta State, who is also the governorship candidate won election in only his native Ewvreni ward, out over 250 wards in the State. Otega could not even win his local government area and Fred Latimore is talking of APC being the opposition party in Delta State. The truth is that there is virtually no APC in Delta State.

If any party is to be referred to as opposition party, it should be the Labour Party, which has representation in the State House of Assembly. It is therefore, amusing how APC without a single seat anywhere assumes itself to be the opposition party in the State? This is purely a case of self aggrandisement of influence, which is the worst form of self-importance and arrogance. 

Most of the people who cry foul have all benefited from this same PDP, but once an opportunity offers itself they seize it and become the mouthpiece against the same party that provided them the ladder in the first instance.

The President is no doubt aware of what Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe represents in his delusion of APC as the opposition party in Delta State. Delta State for now remains PDP State. It will continue to remain so even after Appeal and Supreme courts. No shaking!
