Delta Speaker denies PDP lawmakers’ defection rumour, Delta State House of Assembly, Emomotimi Dennis Guwor, has described as unfounded, the media report that 10 members of the House, elected under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), are set to dump the party for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Reacting to the House Leader, Emeka Nwaobi’s concern on the issue, during yesterday’s plenary, Guwor enjoined Deltans, particularly PDP faithful in the state, to discountenance such a report.

He stated that the 22 PDP members currently serving as legislators in the state Assembly are solidly loyal to the ideals of the party, pointing out that the rumour mongers intend to heat the polity in the state.

The Speaker stressed that Deltans are happy with the PDP administration in the state led by Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, the Speaker said there was no reason for such rumour.

Guwor emphasised that Oborevwori is still focused and strong in his MORE agenda, stating that his development strides are impacting greatly on the state and its people.

“The rumour peddler is daydreaming. He is in his world. PDP in Delta State is strong and intact. Deltans are happy with the MORE agenda of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.

“There was no reason for such rumour, as the performing governor remains focused and strong in his MORE agenda. I enjoin the public to discountenance such rumour, as it is unfounded,” Guwor stated.
The Speaker however asked those in opposition parties in the state that are willing to join the PDP to do so, as the party’s umbrella is big enough to accommodate everyone.
